Abstract

The article presents the defining aspects of strategic thinking concept, highlighting the diversity of existing approaches in literature. The analysis emphasizes the different types and patterns of thinking and behaviors associated with strategic thinking in the public sector. The empirical research carried out in the District 1 City Hall, with the purpose of evaluating the level of maturity and the strategic thinking capacity of the civil servants in the local administration, revealed organizational, administrative and managerial issues. Most of the civil servants included in the research demonstrate a primitive knowledge of the strategic thinking and planning, with a limited applicability capacity, but there is a high level of interest regarding the strategic thinking capacity development. It is obvious that civil servants from District 1 City Hall are aware of the advantages to which strategic thinking development can lead, at individual, group and organization levels.
