Abstract
This study aims to examine the role and impact of strategic management within the healthcare sector, focusing on a case study of a private hospital in Yemen. The primary objective is to assess how the implementation of strategic management practices influences organizational performance, particularly in reducing risks, operational costs, and waste, while enhancing long-term service quality and sustainability. In a context where healthcare systems face numerous challenges, particularly in conflict-affected regions such as Yemen, strategic management offers a potential pathway toward enhanced efficiency and resilience.
A descriptive research design was employed, utilizing a structured questionnaire as the main instrument for data collection. The study targeted a diverse group of respondents, including hospital administrators, medical staff, and patients, to gain a comprehensive understanding of the effects of strategic management. A stratified sampling method was applied to ensure that participants represented various departments and service areas within the hospital and different geographic regions.
The results indicate that hospitals adopting strategic management practices experience measurable improvements in operational efficiency, resource allocation, and service delivery. Staff reported greater clarity in organizational goals and improved coordination, while patients perceived enhanced quality of care.
In conclusion, the findings underscore the importance of strategic management in strengthening healthcare institutions in developing and conflict-affected regions. Strategic planning and execution can serve as essential tools for fostering institutional resilience, improving patient outcomes, and ensuring more sustainable healthcare delivery in challenging environments.
