One important part of strategic management is the implementation of strategy. Strategy is most effectively implemented when the people involved in the operations of the business are action-oriented and operations driven. Effective strategy implementation is also a systems management activity that involves leading, motivating, organizing change, engineering business processes, and creating strong fits between strategy and how the business does things.

It is a way of recognizing the basic drivers of a business, and a way of thoroughly challenging conservative beliefs about them.
