Product Description

Review

 "Finally a strategic book that talks about the strategist and his thinking and not the hard processes along the way. Strategy does not typically develop from tables or tools, it comes from 'thinking with your head and speaking with your heart'. Pat Thurbin has expertly combined these unique perspectives in this wonderful read". Patrick Harris, Head of Strategy - Orange

This book is about personal empowerment. Pat Thurbin will help you to identify and trust your intuition to win at the strategy game.

 Brian Elliott MBA, Director, Planet Organic   " Managers at all levels will benefit from this innovative, enlightened and pragmatic approach to what is today one of the most important ingredients for business success - understanding and winning the Strategy Game". John Dorland, CEO Dorland & Associates, International Strategic Enterprises 

Product Description

Behind every good business is a good strategy. Who's behind yours?  Strategy is a skill not a formula. Now’s the time to make great strategy one of your skills. You can't afford to wait to be handed a good strategy. This book will develop your strategic thinking and coach you in more effective strategic behaviour.  Playing the Strategy Game establishes the link between personal and corporate strategic agendas. It provides a clear guide to becoming a strong performer in the competitive game of business. The business game is still played at both the operational and strategic level. The ambitious manager who wants to live and succeed in this complex but rewarding world, has to gain an effective set of generic skills.  With Playing the Strategy Game, you will:  - understand strategic thinking and the strategy process  - create better strategies, more quickly  - create the appropriate strategies for you and your business  - communicate and win support for your strategy  - develop your own strategic sense and imagination  - make your strategic radar more reliable  - link your corporate and personal strategic agendas  - become a smarter strategist  Create your own strategy rather than living someone else's.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews
By A. Sen
Format:Hardcover
This book does not meet my expectation as it does not clear what you should do apart from some test and bit analysis. The case studies are not properly described or contexed. I suggest if you are new to strategy or want to develop strategic thinking and ideas look for other good books.
