Semiotics - Terminology and history

1 ix: “The expression doctrine of signs, for the title of this collection, was

selected with deliberation to emblematically align the arguments

embodied in these eleven essays with the semiotic tradition of Locke and Peirce rather more closely than with others that prefer to dignify the field—often with premature strategic

intent—as a ‘theory’ or even a ‘science’

Beer distribution game - Gameplay

1 For a complete understanding, the game is played not only within a supply chain, but two or three supply chains are set up

(when there are enough players and volunteers to help). In real life, more than the understanding one gets by playing as different entities in a single supply chain,

it is the learning when supply chains compete with each other that the real

strategic intent is made clear.

Concept Driven Strategy - Other terminology

1 The literature about 'Corporate Purpose'•Basu, S. 1999. Corporate Purpose: Why it

Matters More than Strategy. Garland Publishing, Inc, New York London.• Ellsworth, R., R. 2002. Leading with Purpose. Stanford University Press, California. is also similar to that of Strategic Intent. Sometime purpose

refers to present actions and intent to future ones. If purpose is expressed as a set of

concepts, then the concepts approach again provides some philosophical basis.

Grande Armée - Army General Headquarters

1 Since the Emperor was his own operations officer, it can be said that Berthier's job consisted of absorbing

and transmitting them with the utmost speed and clarity

Muslim conquest of Spain - Background

1 As to the initial nature of the expedition, historical opinion takes four directions: (1) that a force was sent to aid one side in a

civil war in the hope of plunder and a future military alliance|alliance; (2) that it was a

reconnaissance force sent to test the military strength of the Visigothic kingdom; (3) that it was the first wave of a full–scale invasion; (4) that it was an unusually large raiding expedition with no direct strategic

intentions.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-strategic-intent-toolkit.html

Strategy dynamics - The Dynamic Model of the Strategy Process

1 In this model, strategy is both planned and emergent, dynamic, and

interactive. Five general processes interact. They are strategic intention,

the organization's response to emergent environmental issues, the

dynamics of the actions of individuals within the organization, the

alignment of action with strategic intent, and strategic learning.

Strategy dynamics - The Dynamic Model of the Strategy Process

intentions

Strategy dynamics - Criticisms of Dynamic Strategy Process Models

1 Also, there are some implementation decisions that do not fit a dynamic

model. They include specific project implementations. In these cases

implementation is exclusively tactical and often routinized. Strategic intent and dynamic interactions influence

the decision only indirectly.

Strategic thinking - Strategic thinking competencies

1 #Intent focused which means more determined and less distractible than rivals in the marketplace. Crediting

Hamel and Prahalad with popularising the concept, Liedtka describes strategic

intent as the focus that allows individuals within an organization to marshal and

leverage their energy, to focus attention, to resist distraction, and to concentrate for as long as it takes to achieve a goal.

Jacob L. Devers - North African (NATOUSA) and Mediterranean Theater of Operations (MTO)

1 Fascist sympathizers and Luftwaffe reconnaissance aircraft quickly

reported Allied troop, ship and plane movements to German Intelligence. German field commanders were well aware of Allied strength massing for an assault, their general strategic

intentions and the probable date of the Operation. It would later be said

that ANVIL was The Worst-Kept Secret of World War II.

Cannibalization (marketing)

1 However, if the strategic intent of such an extension is to capture a

larger market of a different market segment notwithstanding the

potential loss of sales in an existing segment, the move to launch the

new product can be termed as cannibalization strategy

Iraq and weapons of mass destruction - Iraq Survey Group

1 #Saddam Husayn so dominated the Iraqi Regime that its strategic intent

Propaganda in North Korea

1 The standard view of 'propaganda in North Korea' is that it is based on the Juche ideology

and the promotion of the Workers' Party of Korea.[http://www.strategicstudiesinstitute.army.mil/pubs/summary.cfm?q=611 Excerpt - North Korea's Strategic Intentions] Many pictures of

the national leaders are posted throughout the country.[http://www.huffingtonpost.com/illya-

Political discourse - Jürgen Habermas: bourgeois public sphere

1 The public sphere, simultaneously prestructured and dominated by the

mass media, developed into an arena infiltrated by power in which, by

means of topic selection and topical contributions, a battle is fought not

only over influence but over the control of communication flows that affect behavior while their strategic intentions are kept hidden as much

as possible.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-strategic-intent-toolkit.html

Oil-for-Food Programme - Duelfer Report

1 The Iraq Survey Group, which was tasked with finding evidence of weapons of mass

destruction in Iraq, found that OFF saved the Iraqi economy from decline after the

imposition of sanctions. Furthermore, the Iraqi regime found that it could corrupt OFF to get hard currency that could be used to manipulate the Iraq Sanctions Committee

and undermine sanctions as well as increase arms.Duelfer, vol. I, ch. Regime Strategic

Intent, p. 1.
