Strategy

A Step-by-Step Approach to the Development and Presentation of World Class Business Strategy

‘We like Strategy because it’s a comprehensive sum-up of popular strategies to date as well as a sturdy jumping-off point for crafting a strategy that suits your organization. Perhaps unique among strategy guides it also expends pages on the human element of strategy making and execution—dubbed here not as “the soft stuff” but as “the even harder stuff” and it’s important for a book to make that link: A good strategy needs good leadership to carry it off.’
Harvard Business School (Working Knowledge)

‘It really doesn’t get more complete than this book. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to know all about strategy. Best Strategy book ever!’
