Strategy vs. Tactic

Dear teachers.


The Longman contemporary dictionary defines as follows:

  • Strategy: a planned series of actions for achieving something
  • Tactic: a method that you use to achieve something

And my understanding is that a strategy is a superordinate concept when compared with a tactic.

It would be highly appreciated if you could exemplify both a strategy and a tactic.


Thanks and best regards,


David Kim

Lieutenants deal with tactics. eg I'll attack the back of the house.

Generals deal with strategies. eg We'll drive the enemy out of the Northern part of the country, and then attack the South.

Put simply, it means that a strategy is an overall plan to achieve objectives. Tactics means the methods used in a strategy, like particular operations or methods of attack.
