Strategy is the integrated set of actions an organization takes to build a competitive advantage. The global annual spend, including everything from IT to business strategy, reached about USD $415 billion in 2013. According to Michael Porter of Harvard Business School, a diversified company has two levels of strategy: business unit (or competitive) strategy and corporate (or companywide) strategy. Competitive strategy concerns how to create competitive advantage in each of the businesses in which the company competes. Corporate strategy concerns two different questions – what businesses the corporation should be in and how the corporate office should manage the array of business units.
