| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study is to explore the processes followed in the formulation, from the initiation phase leading to the adoption of the Mpumalanga Provincial Growth and Development Strategy (PGDS). It seeks to explore the level of understanding of the processes of strategy formulation, the consultation of stakeholders and the extent to which organisational and institutional support structures were put into place for the purpose of supporting the implementation of the PGDS. The research involved the interrogation of all the distinctive elements that were followed in the formulation and the support mechanisms of the PGDS. The research explored through the integrated model key elements and processes that need to be followed in strategy development and also identified challenges and lessons, regarded as positives that can be learned for future review processes. The findings of the research indicated that effective management of strategy processes and supportive organisational and institutional frameworks are important factors to be considered, if successful strategy formulation is to be achieved. The influences of stakeholders and the importance of leadership structures have also emerged as important factors that need to be seriously considered. | en_US |
