Book Description
Strategic plans are meant to create long-term value for all stakeholders. The Art of Strategic Planning provides insight into how long-term value is created and underlines the fact that strategic plans are always evolving and must be reviewed constantly. Reevaluating and modeling the strategic plan is vital for community banks as their environments, whether economic or the competitive market, continually change. Especially in the post-financial crisis world, keeping a dynamic and prudent strategic plan will ensure that long term value is created, not destroyed.

Book Description
This book challenges the universal applicability of strategic management concepts. It argues that it is necessary to pay attention to contextual facets of the environment, in particular to societal culture. It also depicts the current planning situation in the banking industry. The culture-boundness of strategy formulation and implementation is challenged and advocated trough discussing planning systems, processes, and heuristics, and contextual influences both an a theoretical basis and with empirical research. The book is based an my doctoral dissertation, which was completed at the Marketing and Banking Departments of the Vienna University of Economics under the auspices of Fritz Scheuch and Gustav Raab. Their teaching, constructive criticism, and encouragement provided the intellectual stimulation for bringing this dissertation to completion. This applies equally to several professors at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Harry Triandis and Anant Negandhi introduced me to cross-cultural research and inter national management. Howard Themas, Marjorie Lyles, and Irene Duhaime helped me to crystallize thoughts. Hanns-Martin Schönfeld, Seymour Sudman and Gerald Salancik challenged my thoughts about organizational behavior and methodology. Richard Watson, Univer sity of Georgia, and Louis Flores of Northern Illinois University were very helpful in providing address material for Australia and Latin America, as well as through assistance with translations. Norihiro Suzuki of Int'l Christian University, Tokyo, and Hiro Matsusaki of Tokyo University helped with Japanese translations.

Book Description
The subject of bank planning has received considerable attention in recent years. However, little relative attention has been devoted to strategic planning for new banks. This study reduces this void by providing some guidelines and thoughts pertaining to development of strategic plans for newly formed banks.This focus on strategic planning is appropriate for two reasons. First, strategic planning involves the most important and basic objectives and policies faced by the organizers, directors, and management of new banks. This is especially relevant for new banks whose organizers and directors lack previous banking experience. Second, strategic planning should take place before shorter range, more operations-oriented plans are formulated.
