The more we work on abstract ideas we get more rework, the only way to reduce such rework is doing rework early and often so we do not have to do it at end.

Agile based approaches are gaining ground because of this need only. May like to explore our introductory program on agile for free.

The question should be "how to align action with strategy" as the strategy comes first. Thomas is correct that PMI has several answers especially in its "Pulse of the Profession" series and thought leadership papers. Go to: http://www.pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership

While I performed conferences, articles, training around the world on this topic, besides is my daily work inside the organization I am working right now, let me explain in this way (a short explanation). Think about your personal life. Which way you answer to your environment stimulus? The way you answer is your strategy, thinking that, as for organizations, your strategy is intended to survive, growth and developt in the current environement. When you decide the way you answer to your environment stimulus then you have to decide the actions you will take in accordance to your strategy. Here is when action plans arrives. Action plans is about to decide what/when/how/who (beside you) and most of the times how much. You can name them project.

ADVERTISEMENTS

"Impartial observers from other planets would consider ours an utterly bizarre enclave if it were populated by birds, defined as flying animals, that nevertheless rarely or never actually flew. They would also be perplexed if they encountered in our seas, lakes, rivers and ponds, creatures defined as swimmers that never did any swimming. But they would be even more surprised to encounter a species defined as a thinking animal if, in fact, the creature very rarely indulged in actual thinking."

- Steve Allen
