Please go through Chapter 1 of PMBoK® guide Fifth Edition Page#1
As per section 1.5.2.3 The Relationship Between Project Management and Organizational Strategy of PMBoK® guide Fifth Edition Page#15
Organizational strategy should provide guidance and direction to project management—especially when one considers that projects exist to support organizational strategies. Often it is the project sponsor or the portfolio or program manager who identifies alignment or potential conflicts between organizational strategies and project goals and then communicates these to the project manager. If the goals of a project are in conflict with an established organizational strategy, it is incumbent upon the project manager to document and identify such conflicts as early as possible in the project. At times, the development of an organizational strategy could be the goal of a project rather than a guiding principle. In such a case, it is important for the project to specifically define what constitutes an appropriate organizational strategy that will sustain the organization.
Section 1.6 Business Value PMBoK® guide Fifth Edition Page#16
Successful business value realization begins with comprehensive strategic planning and management. Organizational strategy can be expressed through the organization’s mission and vision, including orientation to markets, competition, and other environmental factors. Effective organizational strategy provides defined directions for development and growth, in addition to performance metrics for success. In order to bridge the gap between organizational strategy and successful business value realization, the use of portfolio, program, and project management techniques is essential.
