“Advanced Strategic Management: A Dynamic Approach to Competition does the seemingly impossible. It manages to be deeply rooted in theory, strongly informed by empirical evidence, and eminently practical -- all at once. It makes the art of strategic management realistic by presenting issues from the vantage point of a strategic leader, without trivializing the firm as a "black box" in which critical decisions and people issues are assumed away or just happen magically. And if that weren't enough, this book provides a truly global perspective in which national context and macroeconomic fluctuations really matter. That the authors managed to string all those essential threads together is remarkable. I expect this to become one of the definitive textbooks on business strategy.” (Exequiel (Zeke) Hernandez, Max and Bernice Garchik Family Presidential Professor, The Wharton School)
“Advanced Strategic Management: A Dynamic Approach to Competition provides fresh view of strategizing that is very welcome both for its practical insights as well as for its intellectual ambition and originality. The authors pooled their multi-disciplinary intellectual background and their consulting and entrepreneurial experience to provide a very compelling and clear account of how the competitive efforts of the firm benefit from a blend of dynamic strategic analysis and diagnosis, sound and varied leadership skills and an well-crafted organizational architecture. This book will help managers and entrepreneurs to think more comprehensively about competition and, thus, act more effectively as strategic leaders of their firms. It will also help graduate students to start the thrilling journey to the world of business strategy on very sound footing.” (Adrián A. Caldart. Associate Professor of the Practice of Strategic Management, Academic Director of the ONE EMBA, IESE Business School)
“Strategic management and leadership are often treated as distinct activities, requiring different skill sets grounded in divergent disciplines. Advanced Strategic Management upends this perception, offering a rich and deeply persuasive examination of how strategy and leadership are interwoven and interdependent. With insights that are both conceptually novel and practically actionable, this exceptional book is a must-read for all students of strategy, leadership, and management.” (Sally Maitlis FBA, Professor of Organizational Behavior & Leadership, University of Oxford)
