Uwarunkowania skutecznego planowania strategicznego na przykładzie planowania infrastruktury lotniczej

The aim of this article is to analyse the effectiveness of the process of strategic preparation assessed from the perspective of assessing the activities undertaken at the airport of Radom. The work was divided into theoretical and empirical parts. In the theoretical part, the basis for presenting knowledge is a critical review of the subject literature, aimed at refining the concept of strategic planning and its significance in various scientific concepts. In the empirical part a case study is presented: Radom Airport. The planning of aviation infrastructure development in Poland is planned. Its effectiveness, analysed from a system- and resource perspective on the basis of reports, shows that the success of the plan depends primarily on the environment, in particular on regional and central strategies. Internal actions are secondary.
