Mapping Strategic Diversity: Strategic Thinking from a Variety of Perspectives
Autor Dany Jacobsen Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 oct 2009
In Mapping Strategic Diversity, Jacobs distinguishes between 'cockpit theories' of strategy, which bring rational analysis to the forefront, and process-oriented social science approaches, which bring in a wider array of influences to the theory and practice of business planning. Presenting 22 different approaches to strategy making, this book:
- provides a comprehensive overview of the field
- guides the reader in developing theoretical and practical skills
- helps develop both high and low level strategic thinking
This textbook is a useful analysis for practising managers, but really comes into its own as an advanced introduction to the field of strategic management; having read this book, students are fully armed to enter the strategy jungle!
