Reviews

[David Mayes]

This is my choice as undergraduate strategy text. It is a keeper. It addresses the subject of strategy exactly the way I would do it if I wrote a book. Hits the high tech strategy topics that are near and dear to my heart, so it followed very smoothly from my industry analysis course last term. BTW I was unable to find any useful industry analysis text...but Industry Analysis is Chapter 2 in this book. Excellent instructor resources and case studies.

[ERICAG]

Manuale accademico che introduce e spiega che cos’è la strategia e quali sono le principali strategie competitive. Abbastanza chiaro e pieno di esempi che facilitano la comprensione.
