| Abstract: | A paradox may be described as "an idea which seems to conflict with conventional logic". Strategic planning has acquired such a conventional logic,or set of paradigms,which enables its practitioners to structure and understand their activities. However,on the basis of experiences gained as a practitioner,it is argued that good management and good planning often violate these principles.It is necessary to restate them,or frequently to invert them,to obtain a useful structure for successful planning. |
