An organization’s strategic intent is the purpose that it exists and why it will continue to exist, providing it maintains a competitive advantage.

It clarifies the vision of the vision of the company.
Strategic intent helps management to emphasize and concentrate on the priorities. Strategic intent is, nothing but, the influencing of an organization’s resource potential and core competencies to achieve what at first may seem to be unachievable goals in the competitive environment.
A well expressed strategic intent should guide/steer the development of strategic intent or the setting of goals and objectives that require that all of organization’s competencies be controlled to maximum value.
