Stedman had no thick strategic plan in his back pocket, either. At most he probably had a general battle plan worked out with his fellow officers and recorded in pencil on a map. Again, strategic thinking and acting were what mattered, not any particular planning process.

How does this relate to public and non-profit organizations today? The answer is that strategic thought and action arc increasingly important to the continued viability and effectiveness of govcrnments, public agencies and non-profit organizations of all sorts. Without strategic planning it is unlikely that these organizations will bc able to meet

The environments of public and non-profit organizations have changed dramatically in the last 10 years-as a result of oil crises, demographic shifts, changing values, taxing limits, privatization, centralization or decentralization of responsibilities,
moves toward information and service-based economics, volatile macroeconomic performance, and so on. As a result, traditional sources of revenue for most govcrnmcnts arc stable at best or highly unpredictable or declining at worst. Further, while the public may bc against higher taxes, and while transfers of money from central to local governments
are typically stable or declining, the public continues to demand a high lcvcl of government services. Non-profit organizations often are called on to take up the slack in the system left by the departure of public organizations or services, but may bc hard-pressed to do so.
