Abstract
:
"Strategic Management: Awareness and Change provides a comprehensive introduction to modern strategy and is essential reading for those who will become future managers as well as managers in practice. Following the 'analysis, choice, implementation' model the book moves from examining the strategy process as a whole, through the three approaches to strategy, strategy formulation and growth and retrenchment issues, finally concluding with an exploration of strategy implementation."--Publisher's description.
