Abstract: | A paradox may be described as: ‘an idea which seems to conflict with conventional logic’. Strategic planning has acquired such a conventional logic, or set of paradigms, which enables its practitioners to structure and understand their activities. However, some years of being a practitioner has convinced the author that good management and good planning often violate these principles. It is necessary to restate them, or frequently to invert them, to obtain a useful structure for successful planning. |
