Synopsis

The education system of the 21st century needs to conduct an in-depth analysis of the way strategy is taught. The task is even more imperative because the ambiguous conflicts and the complex geopolitical environment of the future are likely to challenge the community of strategists, civilians as well as those from military, in ways very different from the past. To meet the future requirement, developing an appropriate curriculum and effective methods of teaching strategy will be the responsibility of universities, colleges and institutions of professional education. This book deals with the basics of how to teach strategy. The findings, insights and recommendations are those of professional experts who are accomplished in classroom teaching as well as in the crucible of strategy application.
