The Strategic Management of Organisations: AND Strategy Safari - The Complete Guide Through the Wilds of Strategic Management

Henry Mintzberg

0/5 ( ratings)

This Multi Pack consists of The Strategic Management of Organisations, First Edition, by Adrian Haberberg and Alison Rieple and Strategy Safari, by Henry Mintzberg, Bruce Ahlstrand and Joseph Lampel . The Strategic Management of Organisations takes a balanced view of strategy, and is unusual in giving equal importance to the insights from both economics and organisational theory, whilst also bringing in other important current topics such as organisational learning and knowledge management. The authors set out to make a difficult subject accessible both through writing style and through plenty of examples showing concepts and tools applied in real business situations. The student is guided through the complexities of managing strategically and shown how theories can be selected, and applied, in a rigorous and integrated way. Strategy Safari draws together diverse strands of strategic thought into ten distinct schools. In a final chapter they seek to blend the schools together; pointing out however that a truly unified theory may not be possible or desirable. The result is a thoughtful and readable guide to the wilds of strategic management. Stratefy Safari can be read by anyone with an interest in business strategy but it is especially useful to those managers, scholars and students who must reconcile academic theory with the everyday reality of modern corporate practice. "Like butchers, the academics and consultants chop up reality for their own convenience...managers can allow themselves no such luxuries. They can use it only if it remains intact as a living being." "Henry Mintzberg's views are a breath of fresh air which can only encourage the good guys." The Observer "My favourite management book of the last 25 years No contest. The Rise & Fall of Strategic Planning by Henry Mintzberg." Tom Peters
