Nutt, Robert W. Backoff] This article presents a framework in which types of strategies for public and third-sector organizations are matched to environments that are determined by the need for action and responsiveness. Strategic leaders are asked to balance need with responsiveness as they fashion a strategy. The amount of change that is desirable increase, as need and responsiveness increase, first calling for bureaucratic and then for compromisor types of strategy. In turbulent environments a different strategy is required. Using the framework, we suggest that a mutualist strategy will be needed to deal with the environmental turbulence—brought on by attempts to respond to rapidly changing needs—predicted for public and third-sector organizations in the next decade. Drawing on these ideas, we suggest a research program. © 1995 by The Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory, Inc. ARTICLES nationallicence Nutt Paul C.
