Welcome to your first class of ‘Implement an Operational Plan’.
Please open the presentation below and follow it in class.
Class 1 – Cert IV in PGA – Overview
Comparing Operational and Strategic Planning
In-class discussion on what the words strategic and operational imply:
Strategic: theory, plan, ideas
Operational: practical, the actual doing of it
Looking at strategic and operational planning in the context of:
- Chess: the strategy relates to the moves ahead, the player is thinking about a number of combinations. The player will try to determine and anticipate the opponent’s moves, while thinking through a number of moves that would give the player an advantage.
- Military: the general may think about a strategy of attack, while on a lower level of the hierarchy, the Captain may think about how to implement the orders and how to make it happen.
This may include thw day to day running of an army, the resource management, the movement of the troops.
