Strategy is a plan of action designed to achieve a long-term or overall aim, and there are many areas in business where a decent strategy will be of value. Strategy is not complex, but it can be hard, because of the pain of having to make choices. In this practical guide, bestselling author Kevin Duncan offers intelligent and quick solutions to tricky business issues through smart strategic thinking and action. He provides 50 smart ideas to help you arrive at your solution (and present it in a way that everyone can understand!)
A quick little read and summary of some core concepts. I think Duncan has done well in summarising, although I am unsure that most of these core concepts are particularly insightful. This may be my own heavy scepticism of this genre, but there is definitely a sense that there are far too many “business leaders” who have written unnecessary and obvious books.
Despite this, Duncan does better in his summary than selection. Definitely happier to have read this than all the books it delved into, and helped me to pick out the few I would prioritise reading in full.
