According to B. H. Liddell Hart strategy is defined as the art of the employment of battles as a means to gain the object of war. (www.home.att.net )
Another author George steiner defined strategy in many different ways some of them are as follows: (http://www.junglereports.com/ )
strategy is that which top management does, it has great importance to the organizational growth.
strategy refers to basic directional decisions, that is, to purposes and missions.
strategy consists of the important actions necessary to realize these directions.
strategy answers the question: What should the organization be doing?
strategy answers the question: What are the ends we seek and how should we achieve them?
Another author defined strategy as "a long term approach, based on a shared vision, to achieve improved outcomes for children, young people and families in one or more georaphical or operational areas. Strategy is not static but evolves in response to changing needs."
What is strategy?
After going through the authors definitions Iunderstood that strategy is not a single thing it includes many things, some of them are plan, perspective, pattern and position. Planning in a perfect way is also called as strategy. Sometimes this strategy builds a bridge between the plan you made and to the goal you need. Strategy and tactics will cover the gap in between the goals.
Simply strategy is a collection of thoughts, plans, goals, experiences, memories and mile stones to achieve goal. Strategy is a frame work that guides you to the goal by doing all the actions one by one nothing the results or goals as mile stones.
From one author I clearly understood that this strategy is not born in business it born in military and adopted for business use. This strategy only aims at your goals and how those goals are achieved. Strategy is the one which is alive all the time when starting the process till the goal is achieved so we can say that strategy is the main process which should be alive to achieve goal in time with best results.

KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT
According to Macquarie dictionary: The fact or state of knowing the perception of fact or truth clear and certain mental apprehension. (www.durantlaw.info)
Von Krogh, Ichijo and Nonaka go further than this and argue that knowledge (what is known) can be in two basic formats either tacit or explicit. (www.tlainc.com)
Tacit knowledge refers to knowledge that resides in a person' s mind and can include aspects of culture or ' ways of doing things '. It can also be tied to the senses , skills in body movement, individual perception, physical experiences , rules of thumb and intuition.
Explicit knowledge can be reffered to as knowledge that has been recorded as information in a document , image, computer data, film clip, and photograph or in some other medium. It can be put on paper, formulated in to sentences, or captured in drawings and specification.
what is knowledge management ?
In every organisation or any work place knowledge management takes place but in different form whether it is like solving problem or improving the result. This will inscrease by sharing ,
acquiring and creating knowledge. This knowledge management is very important in all firms as the day by day competition is increasing to with stand with this we have to manage the knowledge so, to manage the knowledge new things should be brought i.e. innovation is needed.
This knowledge management should be implemented from lower to higher level i.e. from worker to MD. As the staffing decreases there is need of replacement in formal methods with informal knowledge. Due to these conditions the time for acquiring and experiencing the knowledge decreases so management is required at this place. Most of the organisations are working on the knowledge basis only. Using the information will also come in the knowledge management . There is no end for the knowledge as the time passes more techniques are needed and change is need for development. Once a level is achieved in knowledge management then we have to look for the gaps in the organisation and should fulfilled to achieve the higher level in it. Once a best level of knowledge is achieved we have to implement the knowledge management stategy . This stategy will be used to create a vision statement . This vision statement will include overall aims of the stategy and supporting concepts that are going to be used. But we have look in one thing i.e. changes in stategic direction will leads to loss of the knowledge.
So, finally knowledge management is very important resource for every organisation, not only a resource we say it as a primary resource needed for every organisation.

ORGANISATION
"A successful organization is the product of organized in individuals all aiming for the same goal; all affecting each other simultaneously through their actions. They share the same resources and they all play on the same team". -- James Rick (www.ezinearticles.com)
Another author says that the persons (or committees or departments etc.) who make up a body for the purpose of administering something; "he claims that the peresent administration is corrupt"; "the governance of an association is responsible to its members"; "he quickly became recognized as a member of the establishment"
A simple meaning of organisation according to the dictionary is a group of people who work together.
According to me an organisation is a place where more than two people will coordinate their activities for a single goal.
what is organisation ?
from the words of the James Rick we can say that in a organisation all the members work for one task taking the same input here input's are also called as resources. There is no limitation on the size of the organisation. The size of the organisation increased as the result increases here result increases means high orders or when more man power is needed. The two important things in the organisation are manpower and resources. Every organisation will comprise of more than two departments. One department is management department and another is labour department, in some organisations there will be some more departments depending on the products they are developing or the work they doing. Some times an institution is also called as organisation.
In small organisation the communication between the worker and the MD is easy when the organisation size increases the mediator between the workers also increases proportionally. The mediator like supervisor, Assistant manager, manager etc. In large organisations work is divided and will be combined at regular points i.e. to produce a product many tasks should be performed there will be some tasks which can be performed separately i.e. with out any link between those two tasks, so we can perform these tasks at time to reduce the time and increase the production rate. At the end the result of those tasks are taken to produce a complete product. As the technology is getting improved the departments are increasing and the time for the product development decreses so, some departments like sales, marketing will arise for best results.
The rating of the organisation is degined from ISO : OSI certification, this certification is accepted worldwide and the organisation with this certification will be given good rating and the products from that organisation are best quality.
