Review:

"The volume provides a unique and focused perspective on how strategy is conceptualized, formulated and implemented in small to medium-sized firms. Filled with rich examples that bring their prescriptions to life, the authors provide solid insight into the "best practices" of six award-winning Danish firms - with sufficient depth and direction to allow readers to actually reflect on how these perspectives might be adapted to their own organizations. The volume has immense value for academicians and practitioners alike." --Anthony F. Buono, Professor of Management and Sociology, Bentley College, USA
