Abstract
Most empirical studies examining strategic planning effectiveness have focused on its impact on financial performance. However, solid empirically-based conclusions concerning the usefulness of strategic planning have not yet emerged. The present study takes an alternative perspective, examining two dimensions of executive satisfaction with strategic planning. Results support a link between seven strategic planning characteristics and planning satisfaction among small firms.
