Implementation Plans

Organizational-Behavior researchers have accumulated much useful knowledge about efficient business implementation. This report screens the accumulated knowledge and proposes the practical model, the Business Thinking Implementation Model, for efficient business implementation. The key points of the practical model are as follows.

Organizational Positioning: The recognition of controllable and uncontrollable boundaries in organizational situations is the starting point of efficient business implementation. This report calls this process Organizational Positioning.

Intra-Organizational Setting: The setting within the controllable boundaries is the second step of efficient business implementation. This step includes leadership creation, mental model surfacing, vision sharing, motivation development, procedure designing, and skill development.

Inter-Organizational Setting: Acquiring resources such as budgets, cooperative interactions, and organizational powers is the third step of efficient business implementation. Processing: Processing is the last process of implementation and includes Doing, Milestoning, and Warning. .

Conclusion
This model stressed the following four points. First, recognizing the controllable and uncontrollable boundaries of organizations is the practical starting point of the effective business implementation for strategies and business plans, because intra- and inter- organizational settings have different requirements to be met. Second, not only a leadership aspect and a motivation aspect but also a procedure designing aspect is useful for Intra-Organizational Setting, because both the mentalities in organizations and the procedures of activities strongly affect the efficiency of implementation. Third, we must remember that Inter-Organizational Setting is the most uncontrollable part of implementation processes and the political aspect in organizations is essential to manage the Inter-Organizational Setting. Fourth, Milestoning and Warning is the important processes in order to progress steadily through long implementation processes under uncertain realities. Considering these four points we can significantly improve the efficiency of implementation.
