Critically Analyze the Use of Strategic Management in The Public Sector

Abstract

The application of strategic management theory is lacking in the public sector. Relative to the public sector, the private sector has implemented strategic management approaches with great success. This study uses case studies of individual organizations to explain the definition and characteristics of strategic management theory, as well as the problems and crises that can arise. The study shows that the external environment of the public sector is complex and unstable. The government and the corresponding organizations should adapt quickly to the actual situation so that the capabilities of the members of public organizations can be improved.
