Strategy vs Tactics
Strategies can be compared to tactics. The difference between the two is defined by their time horizon. Tactics take advantage of situations as they arise. Strategies are future plans that may look months or years ahead. As the future is always uncertain, a strategy always involves risks. In many industries, it is common for strategies to change on a regular basis as the competitive environment shifts.Overview: Strategy | ||
