Abstract

A wide range of knowledge and concepts on strategic planning has been exploring and analyzing substantially and qualitatively in indicating the contemporary understandings of the nature and the philosophy of strategic planning. These understandings based on the contemporary literatures and experts that investigating and personal reflection on the topic, conceptually and theoretically. Once understandings of the nature and the philosophy of strategic planning are formed, it is hoped that, they can be difficult to shake. They take on a paradigmatic quality, which shape our attitudes, way of thinking and philosophy of life strongly, especially the organizations. Of these, this paper comes to sum up that strategic planning, on the one hand, is mostly shaping the organization actions and on the other hand, in some extent, strategic planning is emerging from organizational actions. This is reasonable, because strategic planning bring with treasuries of characteristics or perspectives, which are designing vision, mission, strategic goals, values and principles for the future of the organizations.
