About this title

Synopsis:

This is the second edition of De Wit and Meyer's strategy text. It builds on the first edition by focusing on the requirements of students and teachers in terms of the structure, organization and design of the material. In addition, it is global in its coverage of the issues of corporate strategy. Major changes include: greater suitability for an international market; restructuring so that the book does not look like a reader; greater emphasis on the polarities of debate with each topic; clearer flagging of topics covered; more author commentary to introduce and contextualize articles; updated case studies; short cases within chapters; strategy toolbox at the end of the book; maintenance of tone and approach; high design values for cover text; linked web site for lecturers and students; and an extensive instructor's manual.

From the Back Cover:

The highly anticipated new edition of the market-leading introduction to strategic management from Bob de Wit (Maastricht School of Management) and Ron Meyer (TiasNimbas Business School). Widely acclaimed for its ability to foster creative, non-prescriptive and global strategic thinking amongst students, Strategy 4e builds on the major international success of the prior edition. Developed from wide-ranging market feedback, all of the short and long cases have been replaced or wholly updated with dozens of new cases crafted by the authors and several international contributors. From Google to KPMG, ING Direct to the Metropolitan Opera, the text now features an unparalleled range of organizations with rich settings for students to develop key strategy skills and understanding. New readings, including coverage of hot topics like Blue Ocean Strategy, ensure the theory remains cutting-edge, while a boosted set of lecturer resources makes this the complete package for 21st century strategy courses.
