Background

Organizations implement only 63% of their strategies' potential value according to Mankins and Steele. On the other hand, 66% of corporate strategy is never implemented (Mankins and Steele, 2005). The major focus on strategy research has been on their formulation (Grundy, 1998; Morris & Jamieson, 2005). But according to Hrebiniak (Hrebiniak, 2013), it is more difficult to make strategy work than to make strategy. Then, organizations have some room for improvement in terms of linking their strategy with their project portfolio.
