The lecturer explained how the Rayout Cement Company was established and what were its beginnings like, indicating that ‘Strategic Administration’ is one of the terms that  gained a wider circulation because many institutions use Strategic Administration to analyze their internal and external environments.   He dealt with several definitions of Strategic Administration and reached the conclusion that Strategic Administration aims at bringing together the functions of administration, finance, marketing, production, research and development and management information services in order to lead the company to success.  Having elaborated the differences between long term and short term goals and strategies, the lecturer explained how Raysout Cement Company used Strategic Administration as a model in administration to implement certain strategic choices that synchronized the resources of the company with the skills and functions of the people and other related technological systems.

At the end of the lecture, Dr. Subhi Saleh the Acting Dean of the College of Commerce and Business Administration thanked the lecturer for accepting the invitation of the College and explained that the College has always sought to be close to its local community and interact with it through lectures, seminars and conferences that it organizes throughout the academic year as part of its strategic vision.  After that he opened the floor for question and answer, since the lecture of Mr. Al Dheeb is part of the practicum entitled “Visiting Lecturers” which involves discussion and dialogue with the audience.
