This process enables universities to take steps to new changes, management, structure to become dynamic and competitiveness to emerge. Strategic management involves analyzing the internal and external environment in higher education institutions, identifying strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats, and defining strategies in this context. Strategic planning enables the improvement of teaching, research and quality management in a higher education institution. The purpose of the study was to examine the process of conducting a strategic plan, its formulation, mission, vision, main values and SWOT analysis in universities. In the study, the components of strategic planning, mission, vision, main values and SWOT information were explained using content analysis based on qualitative research method. As a result of the analysis, it is clear that strategic plans in many universities either do not exist or are not open to the public. According to their specific characteristics, the mission, vision, and values of the universities with a strategic plan were formed, but two universities conducted a SWOT analysis.

In order to test the stakeholder influence theory, we carried out a case study of a Brazilian university based on qualitative methods. The models of Frooman (Academy of Management Review, 24(2), 191-205, 1999) and Mitchell et al. (Academy of Management Review, 22(4), 853-886, 1997) served as the theoretical basis for assessing the stakeholders' identification and management. Findings indicate that higher education institutions focus on the internal and external stakeholders that have the power to control them. In practice, this study provides insight into the stakeholder influences that have an effect on the implementation of strategic planning in a university. Based on the findings, university managers will be able to think more strategically about the institution's objectives, taking into account the degree of influence that stakeholders have on the institution's objectives.
