Strategic planning methodology is the application of strategic management theory to practice. This book is about the process of strategic management in action, and is firmly grounded, unlike many works on the subject, in both strategic management theory and empirical research. This is what planning professionals and strategic management scholars have long sought—a firm methodological connection between strategic management theory and its daily practice in management. This comprehensive reference handbook covers such critical issues as the application of information technology to planning; the roles and responsibilities of various parties, including the board of directors, CEO, COO, line managers, and planning managers; administrative management of the planning process; integration of near and long-term planning; assessment of the firm's external environment; and the planning manager's role in corporate restructuring, including acquisitions, divestments, mergers, alliances, and joint ventures.

More than two millennia ago the famous Chinese general Sun Tzu wrote the classic work on military strategy, The Art of War. Now, in a new edition of Sun Tzu and the Art of Business, Mark McNeilly shows how Sun Tzu's strategic principles can be applied to twenty-first century business. Here are two books in one: McNeilly's synthesis of Sun Tzu's ideas into six strategic principles for the business executive, plus the text of Samuel B. Griffith's popular translation of The Art of War. McNeilly explains how to gain market share without inciting competitive retaliation, how to attack competitors' weak points, and how to maximize market information for competitive advantage. He demonstrates the value of speed and preparation in throwing the competition off-balance, employing strategy to beat the competition, and the need for character in leaders. Lastly, McNeilly presents a practical method to put Sun Tzu's principles into practice. By using modern examples throughout the book from Google, Zappos, Amazon, Dyson, Aflac, Singapore Airlines, Best Buy, the NFL, Tata Motors, Starbucks, and many others, he illustrates how, by following the wisdom of history's most respected strategist, executives can avoid the pitfalls of management fads and achieve lasting competitive advantage.
