Review:
The Way of Strategy is a systematic treatment applying military strategies and principles to business management. Like war, business is a competition between organizations. The text describes the art and science of managing organizations in competitive situations. The Way of Strategy unites the legacies of teachers and strategists such as Sun Tzu, Carl von Clausewitz, Niccolo Machiavelli, and others. It shows how their tactics and leadership principles produced military victories. Modern business examples show how these timeless principles apply to personal and organizational success. The Way of Strategy emphasizes that people, organizations, and management systems win wars. In business today, the marketplace is the battleground. To win, people and systems must deliver quality products and services to stay competitive. Readers will come away with a clearer understanding of how military strategy can be used to become a successful business leader, manager, and tactician. -- Midwest Book Review
