3.10.4 - Problems with strategy and why strategies fail

This is a lesson that would cover a double period that focuses on strategic planning. It looks at the difference between planned and emergent strategies and provides business examples to support. It also covers corporate governance and contingency planning, with an activity to complete in relation to this. This is relevant to the topic area that covers strategic management for KS5 AQA Business Studies. Includes activities that allow pupils to relate to real-world examples, work in teams to come up with a contingency plan as well as working in groups to evaluate the value of contingency planning.
