Global Competitive Strategy true By:Daniel F. Spulber Published on 2007-07-02 by Cambridge University Press Globalization has fundamentally changed the game of business.

Remix Strategy true By:Benjamin Gomes-Casseres Published on 2015-08-11 by Harvard Business Review Press How to Create Joint Value Alliances, partnerships, acquisitions, mergers, and joint ventures are no longer the exception in most businesses—they are part of the core strategy. As managers look to external partners for resources and capabilities, they need a practical roadmap to ensure that these relationships will create value for their firm. They must answer questions like these: Which business combinations do we need? How should we govern them? Will their results justify our investments? Benjamin Gomes-Casseres explains how companies create value by “remixing” resources with other companies. Based on decades of consulting and academic research, Remix Strategy shows how three laws shape the success of any business combination: • First Law: The combination must have the potential to create more value than the parties could create on their own. Which elements from each business need ...

Strategic Navigation true By:H. William Dettmer Published on 2003-01-01 by ASQ Quality Press There are many parallels between the business world and the military world: both must always be leery of the competition; both must be able to adapt to rapidly changing conditions; and if either falters the results could be devastating. Yet while military leaders have employed essentially the same strategies for thousands of years, business leaders often feel the need to try the latest fad in an effort to capture lightning in a bottle and lead the company to success. In Strategic Navigation: A Systems Approach to Business Strategy, best-selling author H. William Dettmer explains how these sound, proven strategies used by great military leaders through history can also be easily and effectively used in the business world. Dettmer first explains how the time-tested principles of war planning and military execution can be readily applied to non-military uses, such as commercial business, not-for-...

A Strategy of Change false By:David C. Wilson Published on 1992 by Cengage Learning EMEA A Strategy of Change provides a critical appraisal of current ideas about ‘organizational culture’, ‘total quality management’, ‘flexibility’, and ‘excellence’, drawing upon case material from a wide range of different organizational settings.

Strategy in Asia true By:Thomas G. Mahnken,Dan Blumenthal Published on 2014-10-15 by Stanford University Press Some of the United States' greatest challenges over the coming decades are likely to emanate from the Asia-Pacific region. China and India are rising and Militant Islam continues to take root in Pakistan, while nuclear proliferation threatens to continue in fits and starts. If America is to meet these challenges comprehensively, strategists will have to learn more about Asia, and Asian scholars, policymakers, and analysts will need to understand better the enduring and timeless principles of strategy. Based on the premise therefore that the increasing strategic weight of the Asia-Pacific region warrants greater attention from both scholars and practitioners alike, Strategy in Asia: The Past, Present, and Future of Regional Security aims to marry the fields of strategic studies and Asian studies in order to help academics and practitioners to begin addressing these challen...
