Managers achieve their organizational goals and objectives through proper planning. There are three main levels of planning: operational, tactical and strategic planning.

Strategic planning can last two, three, five or even ten years. Strategic plans are made for profitability, improving productivity, achieving growth, improving customer services, etc. Tactical Planning: The next one is tactical planning after strategic planning.

These plans are always about accountability because it is the duty of the tactical plans to fulfill the parts of the strategic plans. Operational Planning: Operational planning is profit planning. Operational planning is created by supervisors and lower-level managers. Managers must make plans for the daily routine activities of the organization. These types of planning are included in operational planning, such as making roasting for employees, creating a monthly budget, ordering supplies, advertising and everything in between
