Strategic planning is a methodical approach to generate fundamental decisions and actions that influence and direct the nature, function, and rationale of the public health sector. However, the existing literature presents mixed findings. This study aims identify potential knowledge gaps and unexplored areas in strategic planning, organizational performance, and its relationship.
The scoping review was applied following PRISMA guidelines. A descriptive analysis was conducted to summarize key findings from studies focusing on strategic planning, organizational performance, and their relationship within the public health sector. Literature searches were conducted in the Scopus, EBCSO, and PubMed. Then, all retrieved articles, published between January 2015 and May 2024, were systematically reviewed.
There were 16 studies that met the eligible criteria. Most articles focus on organizational performance in public health sectors followed by strategic planning and the relationship between strategic planning and organizational performance in the public health sector, accordingly. Most Studies showed that evaluation tools, supply chain management, transformative change, and strategic management are deemed for organizational development; and potential factors contributing to organizational performance were mainly human resource-related aspects. A confirmed relationship between strategic planning and organizational performance with mediators was presented.
We conclude that strategic planning in public health involves carefully making important decisions and taking actions that define and direct the goals, activities, and purposes of the public health sector, while, it was an antecedence of public health sector performance.

战略规划是一种系统的方法，用于做出根本性决策并采取行动，这些决策和行动会影响并指导公共卫生部门的性质、功能和基本原理。然而，现有文献的研究结果不一。本研究旨在确定战略规划、组织绩效及其关系方面潜在的知识空白和未探索领域。
按照PRISMA指南进行范围综述。进行描述性分析，以总结关注公共卫生部门战略规划、组织绩效及其关系的研究的主要发现。在Scopus、EBCSO和PubMed中进行文献检索。然后，对2015年1月至2024年5月期间发表的所有检索到的文章进行系统综述。
有16项研究符合纳入标准。大多数文章依次关注公共卫生部门的组织绩效、战略规划以及公共卫生部门战略规划与组织绩效之间的关系。大多数研究表明，评估工具、供应链管理、变革性变革和战略管理被认为对组织发展很重要；影响组织绩效的潜在因素主要是与人力资源相关的方面。研究还呈现了战略规划与组织绩效之间通过中介因素的已证实关系。
我们得出结论，公共卫生领域的战略规划涉及谨慎做出重要决策并采取行动，这些决策和行动定义并指导公共卫生部门的目标、活动和宗旨，同时，它是公共卫生部门绩效的前提条件。
