2. Introduction
The world is changing. The old rules are
beginning to buckle, and new standards
are emerging-- some still masked in fog,
others with greater clarity.
3. The thing that distinguishes today's successful
enterprise, business and government, is the
ability to adapt to changes in environment, in
markets, and in customer expectations.
4. In order to survive into the 21st century, an
enterprise must make change management
an integral, enterprise-wide process. To
think in radical terms, a dramatic overhaul of
entire operations at a single stroke.
5. Drucker sees the period we're living in as one of
"PROFOUND TRANSITION--and the changes are more
radical as those ushered in the 'Second Industrial
Revolution' in the middle of the 19th century, or the
structural changes triggered by the Great Depression
and the Second World War". In the midst of all this
change, he contends, there are five social and
political certainties that will shape business strategy
in the not-too-distant future: the collapsing birthrate
in the developed world; shifts in distribution of
disposable income; a redefinition of corporate
performance; global competitiveness; and the
growing incongruence between economic and
political reality.
6. Drucker then looks at requirements for leadership
("One cannot manage change. One can only be
ahead of it"), the characteristics of the "new
information revolution" (one should focus on
the meaning of information, not the technology
that collects it), productivity of the knowledge
worker (unlike manual workers, knowledge
workers must be seen as capital assets, not
costs), and finally the responsibilities that
knowledge workers must assume in managing
themselves and their careers.

as a safe, self-seekers in the event of a disaster.The hotel is landscaped
with all facilities for guests. With a shell-shaped, it will withstand tsunamis
and other natural disasters.
15. Biosphere: solar panels and rainwater collection system that will provide
residents of electricity and water, can be adapted for use on land and water.
16. In the field of engineering, a more
general form of enterprise engineering has
emerged encompassing "the application of
knowledge, principles, and disciplines
related to the analysis, design,
implementation and operation of all
elements associated with an enterprise”
17. Disciplines
The engineering majors offered at U.S. colleges and
universities can be roughly divided into one of four size based
categories:
• The “Big Four” Disciplines: Civil, Computer, Electrical, and
Mechanical Engineering, which together
collectively account for approximately two-thirds (67%) of all
engineering bachelor’s degrees awarded annually.
• The “Medium Four” Disciplines: Aerospace, Biomedical,
Chemical, and Industrial/Manufacturing
Engineering, which collectively account for approximately 20%
of all engineering bachelor’s degrees awarded annually.

• The “Smaller Ten” Disciplines: Agricultural,
Architectural, Engineering Management,
Engineering Physics/Engineering Science,
Environmental, General Engineering Studies,
Materials, Mining, Nuclear, and Petroleum
Engineering, which collectively account for less
than 10% of all engineering bachelor’s
degrees awarded annually.
• The Specialty Disciplines: A variety of specialty
disciplines offered (such as Ocean Engineering
19. Philippines
There are many types of engineering courses being offered in
schools in the Philippines. These engineering courses are:
o Ceramics Engineering
o Chemical Engineering
o Civil Engineering
o Computer Engineering
o Electrical Engineering
o Electronics and Communications Engineering
o Geodetic Engineering
o Industrial Engineering
o Marine Engineering
o Material Science Engineering
o Mechanical Engineering
o Mechatronics Engineering
o Metallurgical Engineering
o Mining engineering
o Software Engineering
o Structural Engineering
20. In essence this is an interdisciplinary
field which combines systems engineering
and strategic management as it seeks to
engineer the entire enterprise in terms of the
products, processes, business operations, this
field is related to engineering management,
operations management, and management.

22. Enterprise Engineering
Enterprise engineering is a sub discipline of system
engineering, which applies the knowledge and
methods of systems engineering to the design of
businesses. The discipline examines each aspect
of the enterprise, including business processes,
information flows, and organizational
structure. Enterprise engineering may focus on
the design of the enterprise as a whole, or on the
design and integration of certain business
components. Wikipedia retrieved 6/24/2012
23. o "Enterprise Engineering," as it is defined by Visible:
1997, involves all the activities that organizations
("enterprises") perform to improve productivity, gain
and maintain competitive advantage, optimize
resources, deliver quality products and services, and
meet customer expectations and demand.
o These can include traditional activities such as
reorganization, concentration on core products and
competencies, niche marketing, acquisition, merger,
and new technologies.
24. Enterprise Engineering also includes
new techniques and methods such
as business process re-engineering,
continuous process improvement,
total quality management, enterprise
architecture, and enterprise
integration.
25. The management gurus generally agree that time
can be squeezed out of every job; that self-
managed teams throw more challenge and
meaning into employment; and that
enterprises sorely need to create networks of
relationships with customers, suppliers and
competitors (Byrne:1997 as cited by Perskin:
1997).
26. o Management guru’s tend to agree that smaller is
better, yet they do not applaud wholesale downsizing
as a cure-all.
o "If all you try to do is flatten your existing
organization, you'll kill it,“ "The fat is not waiting
around on top to be cut. It's marbled in, and the only
way you get it out is by grinding it out and frying it
out. "may mean that enterprises need to totally "re-
engineer" how work gets done -- new goals, new
methods, new processes, new measures, new
technologies (Hammer:1992 as cited by Perskin:1997)
27. Given the dynamic nature of the global
changes, only applied systems
approaches can come to rescue because
of their inherent capability to bridge the
gaps between theory and practice.
28. Not only governments, enterprises and other
organizations, but the world at large are in
desperate need of effective methodologies
and multi-methodologies in order to manage
today’s organizational complexities and
implement efficient strategic management.
29. Essence and the Stages of
Strategic Management at the
Enterprise
Key Words: Strategy, Management, Engineering,
Enterprise
Historically, the concept of "strategy" has developed
in the military lexicon, where it defines the planning
and implementation of state policies and political and
military alliance of several countries, using all
available means.
30. The creation of an economic strategy is
"long-term, the most fundamental
and important installations, plans,
intentions of the government,
regional administrations, leadership
organizations in the production,
income and expenditure, budget,
taxation, investment, prices and
social protection."
31. Strategy
a set of core activities and ways of their
implementation.
Recent studies and leading management
theorists have advocated that strategy
needs to start with stakeholders
expectations and use a modified balanced
scorecard which includes all stakeholders.
32. Enterprise Strategy
- a systematic plan for its potential behavior under
incomplete information about the future
development and business environment, including
the formation of the mission, long-term goals, as well
as the ways and rules of decision-making for the
most effective use of strategic resources, strengths
and opportunities, the elimination of weaknesses
protection from threats in the environment for
future profitability.
33. The strategy should be, on the one hand, have a
clear idea about the strengths and
weaknesses of the company, its market
position and, on the other hand, understand
the structure of national economy in general
and the structure of the industry in which the
enterprise operates
34. The Importance of strategic Management at the Enterprise
in Modern Conditions of Management
The economic crisis of the economy depends on several
factors, among which an important place is occupied
by the imperfection of the control system. The
turbulent nature of the adverse changes in the
economy (inflation, rising prices for raw materials,
high interest rates for loans, reducing the
population's purchasing power, etc.) and high
complexity of the tasks now expanding the role of
scientific management to stabilize the socio-
economic processes and to ensure high efficiency all
types of businesses.
35. Strategic Management
o The term and concept of "strategic management" introduced
in the scientific revolution in the early 70 - ies of the
twentieth century to refer to differences between the
management of current manufacturing processes and
management of the Summit, which focuses on the external
environment should be the object of control.
o Strategic management as a new approach to management
was formed in 1970 - 1980 years. Strategic management is
closely linked to issues of planning and economic analysis.
o Ansoff [1] as "an interrelated set of planning strategies for
organizing and implementing a plan of a life."
36. Strategic Management
o is a field that deals with the major intended
and emergent initiatives taken by GMs on
behalf of owners, involving utilization of
resources, to enhance the performance of
firms in their external environments
(Hambrick:2007)
37. Strategic Management
Changes in the state of the product, market,
industry, position in the industry, the
technology used in different growth
strategies, strategies for stabilization and
reduction strategies (withdrawal).
38. Strategic Management
“Strategic management is an ongoing process that evaluates and
controls the business and the industries in which the company
is involved; assesses its competitors and sets goals and
strategies to meet all existing and potential competitors; and
then reassesses each strategy annually or quarterly [i.e.
regularly] to determine how it has been implemented and
whether it has succeeded or needs replacement by a new
strategy to meet changed circumstances, new technology, new
competitors, a new economic environment., or a new social,
financial, or political environment.” (Lamb, 1984:ix)
40. A global/transnational
Strategic management organization may
can depend upon the size employ a more
of an organization, and structured strategic
the proclivity to change of management model,
its business environment. due to its size, scope of
These points are operations, and need to
highlighted below: encompass stakeholder
views and requirements.
Transnational corporations are engaging in developing transition
economies through a broadening array of production and investment
models, such as contract farming, service outsourcing, franchising and
licensing.
41. • An SME (Small and Medium Enterprise)
may employ an entrepreneurial approach.
This is due to its comparatively smaller size
and scope of operations, as well as
possessing fewer resources. An SME's CEO
(or general top management) may simply
outline a mission, and pursue all activities
under that mission.
43. Whittington (2001) highlighted four
approaches to strategic management,
utilizing different factors that organizations
may face. These are the Classical,
Procession, Evolutionary and Systemic
approaches. Each paradigm is suited to
specific environmental factors, of which
global firms have faced over the past 4-5
decades.
44. Classical School (1960)
The Classical School (1960) of strategic management
essential points of the approach are "where are we
now?", "where do we want to be?" and "how do we get
there?". It thus comprises an environmental analysis, a
choice of available options, and determining a path for
action and implementation.
The initial task in strategic management is typically the
compilation and dissemination of a mission statement.
This document outlines, in essence, the raison d'être of
an organization. Additionally, it specifies the scope of
activities an organization wishes to undertake, coupled
with the markets a firm wishes to serve
45. Processual
• Processual strategic management thus emphasizes politics, in
terms of resolving/managing internal conflicts and reaching
compromises in strategic decision-making. Internal politics
may be required for the following purposes. Some functional
areas may require more resources, or be competing for the
same items from top management. A functional area could be
headed by a powerful manager, who by virtue of his or her
influence can impede general strategic actions.
• In these cases, satisfying differing viewpoints is key, in an
effort to resolve conflict and provide a common path for the
organization
46. Evolutionary
• In the 1980s, business environments became more dynamic. It thus
became key to "sink or swim", and adapt to the needs, challenges and
rigors of one's business landscape. In this sense, evolutionary strategic
management is essentially Darwinist, and follows a classical Darwinian
path.
• Organizations must develop or nurture traits that will help them survive
and prosper within their given markets. If they do not, they will perish. A
major facet of evolutionary strategic management is a population ecology
model, in which firms in an industry are seen akin to a population of
animals.
• Evolutionary strategy stems from an inability to track properly complex
environments. If an industry has continuously changing factors, rational
planning (as per the Classical school) is futile. An organization holds no
choice but to "adapt or die".
Whittington (2001)
47. Systemic
• In recent years, there has been greater emphasis on consumer
rights and the general social responsibility of companies.
Consumers are now expecting firms to act responsibly in their
business operations, and to take heed of numerous needs in
this process. It can be said, consequent from this eventuality,
that firms operate in a connected fashion with their
communities and societies, and necessarily impact and "give
and take" from such bodies.
• Systemic strategy views the organization as an open system,
in that it takes inputs from society and imparts outputs into it.
It thus is an integral and interconnected facet of the wider
society, and not an entity distinct from it. A rational planning
model is not seen as optimal, as it detracts from attuning to
the needs of the community and the wider society a firm
engages in.
48. Mintzberg has stated there are prescriptive
(what should be) and descriptive (what is)
schools, in the sense that the prescriptive
schools are "one size fits all" approaches
designed to work as best practice methods,
and the descriptive schools merely
describe how corporate strategy is devised
in given contexts.
50. The Industrial Organizational Approach
Two main approaches, which are opposite but
complement each other in some ways, to
strategic management:
1. The Industrial Organizational Approach
– based on economic theory — deals with issues
like competitive rivalry, resource allocation,
economies of scale
– assumptions — rationality, self discipline
behavior, profit maximization
51. 2. The Sociological Approach
– deals primarily with human interactions
– assumptions — bounded rationality, satisficing
behavior, profit sub-optimality. An example of a
company that currently operates this way is
Google. The stakeholder focused approach is an
example of this modern approach to strategy
53. Strategic Management Techniques
Strategic management techniques can be viewed as bottom-up, top-down,
or collaborative processes.
The top-down approach is the most common by far. In it, the CEO,
possibly with the assistance of a strategic planning team, decides on the
overall direction the company should take. Some organizations are starting
to experiment with collaborative strategic planning techniques that recognize
the emergent nature of strategic decisions
In the bottom-up approach, employees submit proposals to their
managers. who, in turn, funnel the best ideas further up the organization.
This is often accomplished by a capital budgeting process. Proposals are
assessed using financial criteria such as ROI, cost-benefit analysis.
Cost underestimation and benefit overestimation are major sources of
error. The proposals that are approved form the substance of a new
strategy, all of which is done without a grand strategic design or a strategic
architect.
54. It can be said that there is no overriding
strategic managerial method, and that a
number of differing variables must be taken
into account, relative to how a corporate
strategic plan is outlined. It can also be said
to be a subjective and highly contextual
process.
55. In terms of level of management strategies are ranked
as follows:
1) Corporate strategy - implemented in diversified companies and
includes: creating and managing a highly productive economic
portfolio of business units, creating a synergy among related
departments, establish investment priorities.
2) Business strategy involves: development of measures aimed at
enhancing the competitiveness and the preservation of competitive
advantages of firms, the formation of a mechanism to respond to
external changes, the union of the strategic actions of major
functional divisions of the company.
3) Functional strategy involves: steps to support the business
strategy, actions to achieve the goals department.
4)The operating strategy requires actions to address specific
business challenges of subdivision (a functional, territorial).

Luther Gulick and Lyndall Urwick in
1937. Developed as a means to
structure and analyze management
activities, it set a new paradigm in
Public Administration

60. Leadership involves:
· The whole organization
· Leaders are defined by those that decide to follow
· Communicating the expectation
· Empowerment
· Sense of direction or vision
· Developing teamwork
· Inspiration and motivation
· Example
· Encouraging people to “step out”
· Encouraging people to “get it right”
· Engaging people’s hearts and minds
62. First Stage: Analysis of the Environment
The internal environment is analyzed in the following areas:
• Human Resources firms, their capabilities, skills, interests,
etc.;
• Organization management;
• Production, which includes the organizational, operational,
technical and technological characteristics, research and
development;
• Finance companies;
• Marketing;
• Organizational culture.
63. Second Stage: Develop a Strategic Vision
• Develop a strategic vision and mission of the enterprise,
the definition of goals and strategy selection are the
main tasks of choosing the direction of the organization.
• strategy provides (to ensure) the direction and
adaptation activities of the enterprise in a market
environment, the creation of a strategy - is first of all
entrepreneurial activity, policymakers increasingly must
focus on changes in the external environment than to
study the internal problems of the enterprise, a dynamic
strategy and in the process of enterprise development,
strategies for enterprise partially visible and partially
hidden from view.
64. First under the process is to determine the firm's
mission, which in concentrated form expresses
the meaning of existence of the company and
its mission. Next comes a process of
determining long-term goals. Completes this
part of the strategic management of a process
for determining short-term goals. Defining the
mission and goals of the firm leads to the fact
that it becomes clear why the company
operates and what it seeks
65. The third stage. Analysis and selection strategy
This is the main strategic management process.
Using special techniques the organization
determines how it will achieve its objectives
and implement their mission.
66. Fourth Stage. Implementation
Implementation of the strategy is a critical step,
because it was he who in the case of the
successful implementation leads the firm to
achieve its goals. Very often there are cases
when firms fail to implement the chosen
strategy.
67. Implementation of the strategy through the
development of programs, budgets and
procedures, which can be regarded as medium-
and short-term plans to implement the strategy.
In the process of implementing the strategy,
each level of leadership will carry out its specific
task and carries out the functions assigned to
him. A crucial role is played by top management.
His activities at the stage of implementation of
the strategy can be represented in the form of
five successive phases.
68. • Company's strategy consists of actions and
attitudes of management personnel to achieve a
certain goal of activity;
• strategy provides the direction and adaptation
activities of the enterprise in a market
environment, the creation of a strategy - is first of
all entrepreneurial activity, policymakers
increasingly must focus on changes in the external
environment than to study the internal problems
of the enterprise
69. Fifth stage. Assessment and Monitoring of the
Strategy
Assessment and monitoring of the strategy are
the logical last step, carried out in strategic
management. This process provides a robust
inverse relationship between how the process
of achieving the goals and objectives of the
organization.
70. The main task of monitoring:
definition of what is and what indicators to
check;
assessing the state of the controlled object in
accordance with accepted standards,
regulations or other benchmarks;
identify the causes of deviations, if any, shall
be opened as a result of the evaluation;
implementation of adjustments, if necessary
and possible.
72. Engineering provides both a
road map and a vehicle for an
enterprise's journey into the
future. The Enterprise
Engineering life cycle involves
a multi-phased approach that
coordinates strategic,
operational, and
organizational demands.
73. The following is a typical Enterprise Engineering
cycle:
1. Describe the enterprise mission in a brief
statement of purpose: what the enterprise does,
how, and for whom.
2. Make assumptions and gather data about external
factors; for example, government policies, rates of
inflation, markets, and demographic changes.
3. Assess enterprise strengths and weaknesses.
4. Establish goals and objectives and measures
linked to the enterprise mission.
5. Develop strategic and operational plans to meet
the goals and objectives.
74. 6. Design/re-design and integrate cross-
functional processes to meet goals and
objectives.
7. Implement information systems that support
enterprise processes and assist decision-
making.
8. Evaluate performance to ensure that goals
and objectives are being met.
9. Reevaluate and change goals, objectives,
processes and measures as necessary.
76. Forms of Business

102. Competitive Advantage
There are many ways of competition and strategies
of the company: production, product, pricing, etc.
Competitive advantage - this situation of the firms in
the market, which allows it to overcome the forces
of competition and attract customers. Competitive
advantages are unique tangible and intangible assets
owned by the company that are strategically
important for the business areas of activity that
allow to win the competition.
103. Competitive Advantage
• The basis of competitive advantage, thus, are
unique assets of the enterprise or a special
competence in areas important to the
business. Competitive advantage is usually
implemented at the level of strategic business
units and is the basis of the business strategy
104. Competitive Advantage
• The strategy consists of a number of
approaches and disciplines developed by the
leadership to achieve the best performance in
a specific field of activity. The combination of
common and general competitive strategy
depends on the characteristics of the industry,
the overall competitive position of firms in the
environment, the characteristics of the
enterprise.
108. Conclusion
• Economic development strategies of
enterprises is becoming increasingly
important for enterprises, which are set in a
highly competitive, both among themselves
and with foreign corporations. Although
strategic planning is not in itself ensure
success, but it creates the conditions for the
emergence of a number of important and
often essential enabling factors for the
organization.
109. At the present stage of development is the
transformation of the whole complex of economic,
social, relations of power. And it is very important
that these changes are the most effective way,
taking into account the well-defined, scientifically-
based priorities. Current trends that are observed in
the external environment and within the country,
necessitated, and the desirability of an overall
economic development strategy of enterprises,
organizations, government bodies and local
government units
110. • These and other questions of equally significant
stature are ones that business leaders cannot
ignore. Indeed, if these leaders are to survive
they need to address them head-on. And in
doing so, they need to painstakingly examine
their current business strategies and hold
them up to the new realities and determine
what needs to be changed. In short, they need
to re-invent their strategies! A failure to do so
could prove fatal.
