Note:Theentiretextofthecaseisfoundonpages 233234ofthetextbook: Question: What are the causes of the confusion confronting Keith Houck? Is H.I.D. ready to formulate a strategic plan? Why or why not? Answer: The cause of the confusion is that although everyone knows the end goal (mission), no one knew 'how' to achieve this goal. The company should be ready to formulate the strategic goals first, before the strategic plan. Top management should first be able to formulate measurable goals that can be targeted by the organization.

Question: If you were Keith Houck, what questions would you ask the managers? What steps would recommend in your effort to help H.I.D. successfully formulate strategic goals and plans? Answer: He started of in the right foot by going through the vision of each of the managers, what is missing is how all these expectations contribute to the overall goal of the organization... if there is one. My recommendation is for management to set targets and goals for the organization as a whole followed by how each major division will contribute to the achievement of the set goal. Keeping in mind that the goals should be specific and measurable, that cover key results areas, that is challenging but realistic, that there are defined time period and that they are linked to rewards.

Question: If you were Bill Collins, what might you have done differently during your tenure as H.I.D. president? Answer: I would have set the direction in which the organization will focus on. All existing organizations or companies will have goals of profit, to be number one, to exceed customer expectations... its already a given. As the head, I would have to focus on key areas that I believe will give the best return on resources, will give the biggest impact. Once that is determined, I would have made sure that the goals are measurable and specific so we can determine our progress and achievement. All the goals will then be discussed by the heads so we can plan on the next steps to be taken.
