Reconsider Strategy and Make Planning Relevant

In Bringing Strategy Back, strategy expert Jeffrey Sampler cuts through the clutter to reveal exactly why the usual tools of strategy are so sorely out of sync with our needs: windows of opportunity close far faster than they once did, many of these opportunities are smaller than they once were, growth rates are uneven across markets, and today's competition is more asymmetrical than ever. The upshot for managers is that they need to reorient their approach to absorb the shocks and surprises that strike at a moment's notice. Only then can strategic planning reliably play its part.

Leaders all around the world at organizations of any size and type will benefit by shedding their obsolete notions about strategy and becoming more resilient. Bringing Strategy Back rises to the challenge and presents a new prescriptive model. It introduces four "strategic shock absorbers" that enable leaders to build resilient organizations that can withstand even the most unexpected global turbulence. Based on the author's in-depth research in the world's most tempestuous markets, the model delivers several must-have qualities that interact and work together in an ongoing process: Accuracy, Agility, Momentum, and Foresight. With this new framework, Bringing Strategy Back shows how to be prepared and proactive, rather than reactive, even when the future is uncertain.

Cute book, damaged on arrival
Format: Hardcover
The book arrived with some damage to the cover and corners, but the pages inside are fine and the stories are enjoyable. My child liked reading them at bedtime. Consider checking the condition on delivery if you want it gift-ready.

Great book!
Format: Hardcover
The stories may push the 5 minute time, but they are cute and fun. The pictures/artwork are perfect. My child wants certain stories just for the pictures as we go through it. Solid book build as well so can't beat the value.

Very cute
Very cute Winnie the Pooh bear. It has a rattle in it. I’m looking forward to giving this to my future grandbaby very original looking a very good price. It is soft and I think it’s perfect for little hands.

Definitely for a Baby
This little Pooh is as described and definitely for a baby. I had hoped to gift it to an adult but upon receipt, I realized while it is a lovely gift for a baby, it would not relate well for an adult. The ears crunch and there is a sweet rattle inside. It’s very soft and a baby would find it comforting.
