ABSTRACT
This critique on BMW intends to find out Industry Analysis, Strategy Description, Strategy Evaluation, Strategic Issues, and Strategic Recommendations including responding questions of has top management determined the nature and direction of the business over the next few years? Do you know the specifics of the organization 's strategy? Do the key managers share the same vision of the strategic direction? Is the strategy sufficiently clear so you and the key managers can readily agree upon what new products and markets your current strategy would include and exclude? Is the statement of strategy used for making future product and market choices? Are strategic deliberations held separately from your long-range planning efforts? Is the strategy determining what you plan, project, and budget? Are assumptions about the environment used for setting strategy? Is future strategy determining decisions relating to capital improvements? Does each department have a clear stated strategy? Do the department strategies clearly support the overall cooperative 's strategy? And is overall performance reviewed on both strategic accomplishment and operating results?
