Abstract

The paper examines the strategic planning process in Italian Universities. We identify two macro strategic planning dimensions: one for the process and one for the plan substance. We create a synthetic indicator of plan and process quality. Based on quality of plan and process we create a cluster matrix of universities. We also conduct empirical research to determine if university size is correlated with quality of strategic planning. We find a positive correlation between university size and the process and plan quality.
