Fundamental of strategy is a student handbook that provides tools to create structure in the business strategy process. Nothing earth-shattering but a good overview of what is the common denominator of all strategy processes.

Very clear and concise book; its purpose is definitely not to be the most comprehensive guide on the market but, if your goal is to have a very well written high level overview of business strategy and some practical examples, this book definitely deserves a chance!

Interesting book, clear and easy to read
This book goes further in the fundamentals of Strategy but I was actually looking for something more detailed at a maximum point.
Still a very good book that will make you understand Corporate Strategy
