Say goodbye to boring annual strategy retreats and pointless strategy documents that fail to grasp the uniqueness of your organisation. With the help of Strategy that Works, your strategy will become your organisation's culture - applicable, accessible and implementable by all.
In an ideal world, an organisation would be able to predict the future so accurately that it would be easy to devise a strategy that guaranteed success. In the real world, this is simply impossible. But that doesn't mean a valuable, workable strategy is out of your grasp.
In Strategy that Works, Ian Mann provides a practical guide to formulating and implementing a reliable and meaningful strategy. With his unique approach, you will identify the KEY FACTORS that determine your success, create SCENARIOS for uncertain futures, develop a FUNCTIONAL STRATEGY and ALIGN your organisation to it, build an EARLY WARNING SYSTEM and take the necessary ACTION to ensure your work was not in vain.
This book is vital reading for executives and managers of all levels.
