In the same way that Machiavelli, and Sun Tzu before him, exploded all existing ideas about strategy, The Master Strategist cuts across politics, economics and business to set out a new and compelling strategy for a peaceful and prosperous future. We stand at a point in history where we can have almost anything we desire and are able to manipulate technology to create wealth and launch any war we wish to fight. Learning how to create a strategy for saving the future is now essential. Ketan Patel meets with leading strategists in international government and business on an almost weekly basis. This unique access to people at this level has given him insights into the most fundamental questions that face us, such as: -- How many more wars before we learn how to win peace? -- Can we sustain our prosperity, let alone expand it to others? -- How much trust can we put in our political leaders? We find ourselves today more connected, more knowledgeable, more prosperous, more resourceful and therefore more powerful than ever before. With all our power, we have circled back to the need to focus our energies on survival and security. The quality of our strategies will determine the outcome from here.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Vergilbt / ausgeblichen. In the tradition of Machiavelli and Sun Tzu, this work redefines strategy across politics, economics, and business, offering a fresh perspective for a peaceful, prosperous future. We are at a pivotal moment in history, where our ability to understand complex systems--from genetics to the fabric of the universe--opens the door to unprecedented possibilities. However, the same advancements that empower us to create new weapons also necessitate a careful approach to harnessing this power for good. Human nature drives us to dream, aspire, and sometimes deceive or fight to achieve our goals. Strategy encapsulates the thought processes that guide our efforts to prevail. The author, Ketan Patel, who leads the Strategic Group at Goldman Sachs, engages weekly with influential leaders in business, investment, and government. This unique access allows him to explore fundamental questions about the strategies needed for fostering peace, prosperity, and freedom. The work critiques current strategic approaches that fail to yield a world governed by power, purpose, and principle, and proposes a new strategic agenda. This vision aims to resonate with strategists across various global arenas, from the White House to major financial centers and beyond, advocating for a transformative approach to strategy that can lead to a better future.
