1. Urgency of the topic:

INTRODUCTION

Vietnam's economy is increasingly developing and affirming its position in the world economy. A significant contribution to promoting economic development is an economic sector that is considered to bring the greatest benefits without requiring much investment, which is the service sector. In developed countries, the service sector accounts for over 79% of GDP, in developing countries it accounts for over 50% of GDP. The service sector is considered a "smokeless" economic sector, it does not directly produce material wealth but accounts for a high proportion of the economy. Realizing the great benefits brought by the service sector, in recent years Vietnam has increasingly focused on investing in the service sector, including the restaurant and hotel business. Vietnam is a country with great potential for tourism, so every year the number of international visitors to Vietnam is increasing. Realizing this, the State, famous hotel business groups in the world, as well as private investors have invested and built many hotels in Vietnam. This has created a strong competition between hotels. To survive and develop, hotels must build for themselves correct and effective business strategies.

Chapter 1: THEORETICAL BASIS OF BUSINESS STRATEGY

1.1. Concept of business strategy

1.1.1. Concept of business strategy

There are many different views on business strategy today:

According to Fred David, “Strategy is the means by which long-term objectives are achieved. Business strategies may include: territorial expansion, diversification, acquisition, product development, market penetration, cost reduction, liquidation and joint ventures.”

According to Michael Porter, "Strategy is the creation of a unique and valuable position including differentiation, trade-off choices to focus resources to create advantages for the business".

According to Jonh I Thompson, “Strategy is the combination of resources, environment and values ​​to be achieved”.

But in general, business strategy is defined as follows: "Business strategy is a synthesis of long-term goals, solutions and policies on production and business, finance and human resources in a competitive environment to bring the production and business activities of the enterprise to a higher quality state or in other words, business strategy is a general action program that the enterprise outlines to achieve its goals in a certain period of time".

1.1.2. The role of business strategy

Business strategy plays an important role in business operations. The specific roles are as follows:

- Orientation of long-term activities and a solid foundation for implementing operational activities. Lack of strategy or unclear strategy will cause business activities to lose direction, only seeing the immediate and not the long-term.

- Create a solid foundation for research and development activities, investment development, and human resource training and development.

- Create a foundation for businesses to proactively develop business directions suitable to the environment on the basis of taking advantage of opportunities, avoiding risks, and promoting business advantages.


1.2. Strategic management

1.2.1. Concept of strategic management

Up to now there are many different concepts of strategic management:

According to Alfred Chandler, “Strategic management is the process of determining the basic long-term goals of an enterprise, adopting courses of action and allocating resources necessary for carrying out those goals.”

According to Jonh Pearce and Richard B. Robinson, “Strategic management is a system of decisions and actions to form and implement plans to achieve the goals of the business”.

However, these concepts can be grouped into three common approaches:

- Environmental approach: “Strategic management is a decision process aimed at linking the internal capabilities of the organization with the opportunities and threats of the external environment”.

- Approach to goals and measures: "Strategic management is a set of management decisions and actions that determine the long-term performance of an enterprise".

- Action approach: “Strategic management is the process of examining the current and future environments, formulating organizational goals, making decisions, implementing decisions, and controlling the implementation of decisions, in order to achieve goals in the current and future environments”.

From the above approaches we can derive the following concept:

“Strategic management is the process of examining present and future environments, formulating an organization's objectives, and formulating, implementing, and controlling decisions designed to achieve these objectives in the present and future environments to enhance the organization's ability to perform its functions.”

1.2.2. Model of strategic management

1.2.2.1. Levels of strategic management

Corporate level strategy

As a pattern of decisions in a company, it defines and outlines the company's purpose, objectives, determines the business activities that the company pursues, creates policies and basic plans to achieve the company's goals.


In an organization of this size and diversity, corporate-level strategy typically applies to the entire business.

Business level strategy (SBU)

Business level strategy is formulated to determine the choice of specific products or markets for individual business activities within the company. Business unit level strategy of the company determines how each business unit will try to achieve its objectives to contribute to the completion of corporate level objectives. If the company is a single industry, the business unit level strategy can be considered as corporate level strategy.

Functional level strategy

Focus support on the layout of corporate strategy and focus on operational areas, business areas.
