Review<\/h3>\n
This book provides excellent and efficient coverage of business and management strategy – no small feat given such an expansive topic. It is multiple strategy books rolled into one and reflects mastery of the field borne out of exhaustive research and extensive business experience. I have been fortunate to co-lecture with Anne Cohen (one of the authors) on the topic of ‘finding your next core business’ and can see her clear, smart and practical thinking shine through. If there is one strategy book you are going to read this year, this is the one! —\u00a0John Filby, President, Financial Services, Deluxe Corporation<\/span><\/div>\n
