TRENDS, NETWORKS, AND CRITICAL THINKING IN THE 21ST CENTURY Strategic Analysis And Planning KTO12LRM  MOST ESSENTIAL LEARNING COMPETENCY: Apply strategic analysis. HUMSS_MCT12-Ic-e-3 KTO12LRM  According to Urgel, E (2017), Strategic analysis and planning have five essential components. These components are the following: 1. Committed people. The initial step in strategic planning is getting the right people at the right time. They are essential in effectively carrying out a strategy. These people comprise the management staff, officers, and stakeholders. They are also called engagers. KTO12LRM  According to Urgel, E (2017), Strategic analysis and planning have five essential components. These components are the following: 2. Long-term strategic objectives. The objectives are poised to enhance the organizations performance. There is need to identify the beneficiaries in the operation who will receive the benefit from the gains brought by improved efficiency in the operations and delivery of services of the organization. The people involved in setting the objectives are referred to as aimers. KTO12LRM  According to Urgel, E (2017), Strategic analysis and planning have five essential components. These components are the following: 3. Strategic alternatives. The planning team should be able derive options from brainstorming and SWOT Analysis. These alternatives may be of higher quality than the current strategy or may enable the organization to respond with the ease, speed, and effectiveness when changes occur in the environment. KTO12LRM  According to Urgel, E (2017), Strategic analysis and planning have five essential components. These components are the following: 4.Evaluation and choice of strategies. The process of formulating a strategy which involves evaluating and picking out which strategies could facilitate the attainment of long-term improvements. It should include all those revealed by Strength, Weakness, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) analysis of the organization. From the evaluation of alternative strategies, options which are superior to the current approach may be found, and change for organization’s improvement can be undertaken. Those who participate in searching for and selecting strategic alternatives are called option generators. KTO12LRM  According to Urgel, E (2017), Strategic analysis and planning have five essential components. These components are the following: 5. Monitoring of strategy implementation. There should be a plan for formal and regular reporting and other measures of plan implementation. These will enable the organization to know whether or not the plan is carried out properly and the objectives are met. The monitoring system should provide ample room for correction when improper implementation of the strategies is observed and when objectives are not being met. Strategizers are those who implement and monitor strategy.

Strategic analysis is relevant in addressing your personal issues as a student. It means that you can also analyze your own strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in order to make creative strategies or solutions in facing life challenges. KTO12LRM  SWOT ANALYSIS In practice, a personal SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threat/s) will help you understand your personal issues and goals as well as construct effective ways in dealing with both. This is illustrated through the personal SWOT analysis shown on the next page, which presents that of a student who wishes to finish high school with good grades.

According to Amy Baylor (1997), there are three components of intuition and intuitive thinking: immediacy, sensing relationship, and reason. KTO12LRM  Components Intuitive Thinking 1. Immediacy. This refers to the timing in intuitive thinking. The time involved in intuitive thinking is quick where decisions, actions, and solutions come up fast without planning or deliberation. Baylor quotes George Mandler (1995), named it as “mind popping” when thoughts, ideas, and solutions come to mind non-deliberately. KTO12LRM  Components Intuitive Thinking 2. Sensing Relationship. This refers to the establishment or formulation of connections among ideas. This is basic in intuition. The establishment of connection is necessary is associated with a person’s knowledge. KTO12LRM  Components Intuitive Thinking 3. Reason. It deals with intuition which involves certain type of reasoning. KTO12LRM  The table below shows the differences between strategic thinking and intuitive thinking based on Urgel, E. (2017) Element Strategic Analysis Intuitive Thinking Logic Logical mind needed Logical mind not needed Reason Starts from an idea or concept and Focuses on the idea or moves on to what can be associated concept and its attributes with Center Brain-centered Heart-centered Basis Hard facts, data, instruction Hunch, instinct, gut feeling Time Needs time to finish in one or more Spontaneous, quick, finished sittings or sessions at one time Tools SWOT, PEST and other analytical Experiences KTO12LRM tools Planning Well-planned unplanned  Discovery of Non-Intuitive Things There are three ways of discovering non- intuitive things. The following are as follows: KTO12LRM  Discovery of Non-Intuitive Things 1. Gaining more experience. Experience is a great teacher. More experiences you have the easier it is for you to see the similarities between new ideas and previous learning. KTO12LRM  Discovery of Non-Intuitive Things 2. Experimentation. Experimentation can help you uncover inconsistencies. Tinkering is a great way to discover something that isn’t consistent with what you thought. KTO12LRM  Discovery of Non-Intuitive Things 3. Learn by reading, studying & teaching and learning process with your mentors. The more you build your foundation, the more you learn about the nuances, differences and subtleties of a wide array of mysteries. Then, intuitive thinking and non-intuitive thinking become easier in the real life context. KTO12LRM
