Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Strategic management requires managers to take an integrative view of the organization and assess how all of the functional areas and activities fit together to help an organization achieve its goals and objectives. This cannot be accomplished if only the top managers in the organization take an integrative, strategic perspective of issues facing the firm, and everyone else fends for themselves in their independent, isolated functional areas. Instead, people throughout the organization must strive toward overall goals.
