title: A process for implementation of the strategic plan: from strategic planning toward strategic management.
abstract: Although the principles and process for developing a strategic plan are well established, little information exists on how organizations can implement these plans. The authors developed a framework and methodology for The Ontario Cancer Institute/Princess Margaret Hospital that connects the implementation of the strategic plan with resource allocation and the budget; thus, the budget is a quantified expression of the strategic plan. To accomplish this, a specific cycle of events leading to the development of a corporate calendar was undertaken, which results in the establishment of the annual budget.
