Results. Strategic planning is the ultimate function that helps to identify ways to get results when achieving the ultimate goal. It is the basis for management decisions, determines their prospects, prudence, makes them motivated and timely. Strategic planning, as it is clear from the definition, is planning for 3-5 years, with the possibility of adjustment, because the dynamics of the market and constant crises require a rapid, even reactive response to changes in the environment. Thus, the main purpose of planning – to maximize profits from the activities and performance of its most important functions: marketing planning, productivity, innovation and more. To the extent that a group of related firms in a market segment can define similar goals and coordinate individual actions in such a way as to improve overall performance for selected overall goals (or work towards a common «mission» subsector), they can also collectively increase their efficiency and productivity in the way they conduct business. The result should ideally include a reduction in internal costs, an improvement in the services provided and thus an increase in their competitiveness. Conclusion. Strategic planning in the real economy is not just a necessity – it is an effort to constantly monitor change and play «ahead». Only in this way can the company withstand competition and survive in the market. According to the study, a number of scientists propose to assess and plan not the entire organization but its sub-sectors, which allows you to identify «bottlenecks» and respond to changes in a timely manner, preventing large financial losses.
