Synopsis

Most of the strategy literature has focused on strategic 'analysis' - the development of strategic direction. The unique contribution of Peter Lorange in over twenty years of research and consulting has been his focus on strategic 'processes' - the understanding of how strategy can be implemented in organizations.
Strategic Planning and Control draws together for the first time Lorange's seminal work, providing a coherent set of frameworks and approaches to this complex issue. Prefaced by a carefully developed introductory chapter, the main sections of the book deal with strategic planning and control, strategic planning processes, strategic control processes, and managing strategic alliances.
Lorange demonstrates that implementing effective planning and control is a fundamentally important aspect of strategy, and he uses numerous examples from his long experience to demonstrate how it can be achieved. The book is an invaluable reference for strategic planners and students of strategy alike.
