Abstract
Concentrates on the evolution of MCI's strategy-setting process following a period of dramatic growth. Opportunistic strategies during MCI's early years have given top managers a dislike of formal strategic planning and a strongly-held belief in top down strategy setting. Questions whether the nature of planning will have to change as the company passes $6 billion in sales and is faced with increasing global competition.
