BOOKS
'Competitive Strategy Dynamics' (Wiley, 2002). Positioned as (a) a supplement to established Strategy titles, (b) a core for advanced courses on Strategy Dynamics and (c) a reference work for Strategy consultants and other professionals.
‘The Critical Path' (Vola Press: 2003). Managerial companion title designed to make Strategy Dynamics accessible to a wider managerial audience.
‘People Power' (Vola Press: 2003, with Jeremy Kourdi). Many important uses of Strategy Dynamics arise in the area of human resources and capability-development. This short book is designed to show HR professionals how their policies and efforts connect with the wider strategy of the organisation.
[A further title from Vola Press – Competing for Choice, by Lars Finskud – explains how the Strategy Dynamic frameworks apply to branding and marketing strategy.]
