Strategic Thinking: An Executive Perspective

Rating:
Summary: A much needed concise guide to strategic management
Review: It's probably the most accessible strategy book I've come across in the last 10 years and it will form the core of my executive development teaching from now on. Prof. de Kluyver has written a much needed text. It should prove ideal for busy executives and MBA students who want to get a handle on the latest issues in strategic management without having to wade through the typically lengthy tomes that tend to characterise this field. In just 141 pages of text the author covers many of the key topics on the agenda of strategic managers today and somehow manages to do so without sacrificing depth. I would recommend this book to practising managers and business students alike. For educational purposes it is an ideal first step on the road to the original source articles that comprise the cutting edge of the strategy literature.
