Socio-Economic Strategizing of Resource Regions: Conceptual Modeling Stages

The article introduces a conceptual model for strategizing the socio-economic development of resource regions. The research relied on the theory of strategy and methodology of strategizing developed by Professor Vladimir L. Kvint. The model, which consisted of several stages, covered trend analysis, internal environment analysis, mission formation, strategic priorities, and their assessment by mathematical, statistical, and cognitive methods. It is shown that the developed model can be used to develop strategies for resourceoriented regions, and also expanded for use in regional strategizing in general.
