Strategic Management of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises - Is There Space for Functional Strategies?

Based on strategic management principles, it is reasonable to assume that lower-level units within the organizational structure, such as business and functional levels, will be carrying out the strategies. However, such organizational units should be considered not only as decision implementers, but also as strategists and program developers for the areas of activity in which they operate. Managers at the functional level solve problems related to setting goals and objectives in areas such as marketing, resource allocation, finance, production, and accounting. There is a lack of research on functional strategies, emphasizing the need for additional studies and publications. The goal of this paper is to outline significant elements of functional strategies, with a particular emphasis on their distinctiveness in comparison to other strategic aspects of management in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Additionally, the paper aims to explore the feasibility of implementing such strategies within these enterprises. The study seeks to accomplish its objectives through the utilization of theoretical deduction, in conjunction with the analysis of data derived from a concise survey of SMEs and pertinent practical illustrations. From a scientific perspective, the study's findings are predominantly positive rather than normative-regulatory in nature.

The Impact of Globalization on Strategic Management in Lebanon

Purpose: The study sought to analyze the impact of globalization on strategic management in Lebanon.
 Methodology: The research was conducted entirely on desktop review method. Secondary data, or data that doesn't require actual observation in the field, are the focus of desk research. Because it requires little more than an executive's time, telephone rates, and directories, desk research is generally seen as a low-cost strategy in comparison to field research. As a result, the research used data that had already been collected and reported. Secondary sources such as internet journals and libraries made this information readily available.
 Findings: The results show that the impact of globalization on strategic management is far reaching and has changed the way managers view their roles and responsibilities, the way they think about strategy, and the way they go about developing and implementing strategies. They must also be able to effectively manage resources and operations across multiple countries, as well as develop strategies that are tailored to different global markets. Globalization has led to an increase in competition, a shift in the way organizations approach their customers and markets, and the availability of resources and information. Organizations in Lebanon can leverage the opportunities created by globalization in several ways such as focusing on customer segmentation, leveraging new technologies and expanding their operations in new markets.
 Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: It is possible that the theories of globalization of markets and transaction costs will serve as the foundation for future research in the field of strategic management. Policymakers, researchers, and academics from all across the world will all stand to gain from this study's findings. The country's senior strategic management executives will also use the study's conclusions to boost globalization across the board. The study suggests that urbanization firms increase the effectiveness of their primary operations and activities by adopting strategic management principles.

‘Robert’s Rules of Order’ on religious conflicts in the Church of Christ in Zimbabwe

Church conflicts arise due to poor ethics, hermeneutics or doctrine. Unending conflicts may be historical and conflict resolution may not have been done. This article identifies fissures in the history of conflict in the Church of Christ in Zimbabwe (COCZ). It proposes to use ‘Robert’s Rules of Order’ (RONR) to redirect deliberants’ energies towards comprehensive solutions (Robert 2020). This can eradicate collegial competition, litigious animosity, divided loyalties, mutual hatred, and violent tendencies in negative energy to increase growth tendencies in the organisation. Trust was lost due to highly adversarial contact where legal battles and acrimonious criticisms have not been addressed. The COCZ has tactical, technical and strategic management principles inherited from the restoration history, which can apply in conflict resolution. Using scientific methods of handling conflicts like RONR, and the COCZ principles can hopefully lead to better results in that church.Contribution: The paper contributes to alternatives to conflict resolutions which have been tested within the Church of Christ. The Robert’s Rules can be used in different religious organisations to resolve conflict through peaceful resolutions of difference.
