Most people have always confused strategic management and business planning. The two can be used in management but they bear some broad diversity with regards to how they are being used. Thus, I am going to do a research paper that is going to focus on the differences. The introduction will focus on the definition of the two subjects as they are normally used by management in different organizations.The paper will have the body which will focus on various individual differences between the two concepts. The conclusion will summarize the points discussed in the body of the paper. The paper will be written in APA format and will have a considerable length and it will use the sources cited below references.
