The present paper intends to develop an analysis about how strategic management is essential for the sustainability of social economy organizations. In fact, even though those organizations are non-profitable and aim to achieve social goals, it is necessary that they can apply strategic tools to improve their results. Above that, human resources must also be prepared to implement this kind of tools and to manage those organizations as they had profit scope.
As we could already understand, most of the social organizations studied only use some of the tools of strategic management by legal imposition or by requirement of the financing entities. This situation results in poor efficiency of these tools and a reduced impact on improving organizational sustainability.
In this paper, we intend to present a survey proposal, developed by an applied research for social economy, that can be applied on social organizations to understand the real impact of the use of those tools on their efficiency and sustainability. The analysis survey proposal was already tested on several social organizations, geographically confined to the north of Portugal (in social organizations of 3 municipalities). The adopted methodology fits into the bibliographic exploration, supported by techniques of document and content analysis, being the investigation essentially of descriptive type. The expected results will be presented as a paper review with a survey proposal, emphasizing its importance and how social organizations managers can improve their role in inclusive and socially responsible societies.
