Sommaire:
What does strategy mean to the founder and CEO of a coaching and consulting company whose mission is to create inclusive and values-driven cultures where people can achieve their full potential while positively impacting society?
How is sustainable strategic decision-making viewed by a former Member of the European Parliament?

Developed in consultation with lecturers, students, and professionals, the research-driven process-practice model of strategy in Strategy: Theory, Practice, Implementation places implementation at its core, enabling students to develop a crystal-clear understanding of how strategy operates in a culture of dynamism, adaptability, and change.

The authors' wealth of teaching, research, and practitioner experience shines through in their writing as they strike the perfect balance between clarity and rigour. They expertly cover all the core areas of strategy, using carefully paced, step-by-step guidance to apply theories and models of strategy to a diverse range of examples, making the text the most practical of its kind.

Moving beyond the limits of traditional texts, Strategy offers unique Practitioner Insights (and accompanying video interviews) gathered from professionals engaged in a range of strategic roles, across multiple industries and sectors worldwide, to help students grasp the complex reality of strategic management in practice.
Strategy ultimately provides students with an empowering, critical, and highly practical approach to thinking, talking, and acting like a strategist.
