Updated! Stay on the cutting-edge of information: Updated Examples. This text is full of examples from Fortune, BusinessWeek, and the Wall Street Journal, most of which have been updated or changed entirely in the fourth edition. Examples include:
The example in Chapter 1 that discusses Anheuser-Busch’s classic mission statement has been updated to reflect this firm’s new ownership structure and global objectives.
Chapter 5 uses resource-based logic to describe Google’s overwhelming success in recent years, and also uses this same logic to analyze whether or not Google’s level of performance is likely to last.
Provide an accessible approach: An Organized Framework to Integrating Strategic Management Research. The first chapters of this text develop a framework (summarized in Chapter 5) that is used as an organizing script for the rest of the chapters. Within this framework, each of the chapters focus on the specific strategic options that firms choose in order to gain competitive advantage—rather than base the information on the different types of competitive environments firms may face.
Put it all together: Strategy Formulation and Implementation, Combined. In order to effectively evaluate the quality of a firm’s strategy formulation, it’s also vital to analyze the specific strategy that the firm is trying to implement. To help, starting in Chapter 6, this text thoroughly analyzes the strategy in question, which is then followed by an outline of the actions a firm must take in order to implement the strategy effectively.
Capture interest: Enduring Accessibility. The material presented in this text was carefully selected to help spark students’ natural curiosity and provide them with a basis to apply the concepts to. The examples, in particular, come from Fortune, BusinessWeek or the Wall Street Journal to give students a taste of what’s going on in popular business literature.
Highlight what matters: Chapter Summary and Review Questions. Students often have a difficult time pinpointing the most important elements of the reading. The end-of-chapter summaries in this text highlight the key issues discussed in the chapter, while the review questions encourage readers to go beyond understanding the concepts and see the implications involved in managing real firms.
