eBook: Strategic Management E-mail

ImageStrategic Management Skills are becoming very important in the ever changing environment of the Knowledge Economy.  The traditional view of Strategic Manegement focuses on a three-phase process, namely

  1. Strategic Thinking - where we make sure we gather all information and insights needed for the next phases
  2. Strategic Decision Making - where we choose between the options presented to us as the output of the Strategic Thinking phase
  3. Strategic Planning - where we plan to implement the decisions we made in the previous phase.
This view needs to be revisited and a more appropriate description of Strategic Management needs to be found for the Knowledge Economy.  We offer an approach that takes cognisance of the importance of Strategic Thinking Skills in all of these phases.  We give an overview of the current best practices and insights, and derive an approach specifically focussing on the unique challenges and opportunities in the globalised knowledge industry.

ImageThis ebook provides you with a number of salient themes and thinking skills for Strategic Management, also including exercises to sharpen your thinking skills where appropriate.  The author, Mariana van der Walt, has many years of experience in the knowledge economy, having worked in a knowledge-rich environment for her whole career.

The Table of Content includes themes like

  1. The Traditional Approach
  2. On overview of current best practices and insights
  3. The unique demands on the Strategic Processes stemming from the Knowledge Economy
  4. The importance of Strategic Thinking Skills
  5. An Approach refined for the Knowledge Ecomony

Our view of the strategic environment and its unique demands and opportunities is weaved into the content of this ebook.
