Abstract (De)
Although a lot has been published on the relevance of strategies in the public sector, only little research has been accomplished so far regarding strategy and strategic development as well as the associated development processes. This paper examines how strategic develop-ment actually develops in public administrations and what is needed for the development process. Furthermore, we question what role explicit strategies really play for the strategic development in specific contextual settings. With the example of IT-strategies on the state and municipal level in Switzerland we show how strategic management has been achieved by management (top down) and evolution (bottom up).
