希望學生透過優勢、劣勢、機會、威脅分析(SWOT)，為自己或組織找到策略的差異化定位與願景；並透過核心能力的發揮，作出為組織或社會可以看見的價值和附加價值；進而建構一套合理的執行程序與方法，來堅定的實現策略的目標。

We hope that students can find the differentiated strategic positioning and vision for themselves or their organizations through strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis; and through the use of core capabilities, they can create value and added value that can be seen by the organization or society; and then construct a set of reasonable execution procedures and methods to firmly achieve the goals of the strategy.

策略管理現已成為行政學與管理學的熱門課題，為讓學員能夠瞭解其中涉及的基本概念、核心主題與多元途徑，本課程乃採取著名組織理論學者Henry Mintzberg等人所著之《策略巡禮》(Strategy Safari)為教本，論述箇中所述十個學派：設計學派、規劃學派、定位學派、創新學派、認知學派、學習學派、權力學派、文化學派、環境學派、構形學派。探討每個學派的基本模型、預設前提、最新發展、基本缺失以及適用情境和貢獻，並從中歸納出交叉思維的現世智慧(worldly wisdom)，作為「提高勝算」以及「不以一時勝敗為勝敗」的策略思考觀點。在討論過程中，亦將帶入領導學的基本理論之分析與應用，以期對決策與變革得到深入的理解。

Strategic management has now become a popular topic in administration and management. In order to allow students to understand the basic concepts, core themes and multiple approaches involved, this course adopts "Strategy" written by the famous organizational theorist Henry Mintzberg and others. Safari) is a textbook that discusses the ten schools mentioned in the book: design school, planning school, positioning school, innovation school, cognitive school, learning school, power school, cultural school, environmental school, and configuration school. Discuss the basic models, presuppositions, latest developments, basic deficiencies, applicable situations and contributions of each school of thought, and summarize the worldly wisdom of intersectional thinking as a strategic thinking perspective to "increase the odds of winning" and "not to judge victory or defeat at the moment." During the discussion, the analysis and application of basic leadership theories will also be introduced in order to gain a deeper understanding of decision-making and change.
