Study the effect of Organizational Intelligence on Strategic Thinking

Although strategic thinking is so important in strategic management, actually its role in the Organizational Vision Designing remains unrealized and vague. The element that would pave the way of better understanding this phenomenon is Organizational Intelligence. In a comprehensive definition can be said that strategic thinking is organization architecture and using of the employees’ individual intelligence. The aim of this paper is studying on the impact of Organizational Intelligence on Strategic Thinking and identifying the relationship between dimensions of these two variables. Hypotheses have been proposed in the form of a conceptual model and results achieved by using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) methodology. In this case, we used the Albert’s model to determine dimensions of Organizational Intelligence and the Liedtka’s model for dimensions of strategic thinking he results show that these variables are associated together. Therefore, to improve Strategic objectives in organizations it is recommended that senior managers should consider the linkage (relation) of these two variables.
