Arthur A. Thompson Jr. Poradie kníh (chronologicky)

The 18th edition of "Crafting and Executing Strategy" marks a significant revision, led by new author Margie Peteraf, who meticulously reviewed every aspect of the previous edition. The goals were to incorporate fresh perspectives and current academic insights, enhance connections to recent research, and ensure the content remains relevant and engaging. Although the structure retains the familiar 12 chapters, each has been thoroughly updated to reflect a balance between academic rigor and practical application in strategic management. This edition features an impressive lineup of 28 cases, with 25 being new or extensively revised. The cases are diverse, timely, and designed to challenge students to apply the concepts and analytical tools discussed in the text. Many cases focus on well-known companies, providing real-world context. Additionally, the edition includes a comprehensive set of support materials that are user-friendly and adaptable for various course designs. This updated resource is positioned as an essential tool for understanding strategy in a dynamic environment.

Thompson/Strickland has always included the most recent research in strategy in a way that students can understand and apply it to business cases and problems. In addition, Thompson offers more coverage of strategy implementation than most other texts, which many instructors think is critical if students are to understand the how and not just the what and why. Thompson's coverage of Michael Porter's classic 5-forces model is clearer and more detailed than in other texts, according to reviewers. With this edition the market leader looks better than ever before, offering a new 4-color design, improved writing style, and two new chapters on global and e-commerce strategy.

Thompson/Strickland is the strategic management market leader by a wide margin. The book and its parts include excellent text material, the best cases, and a strong current readings component. With this edition, the text portion now contains the best coverage of the resource-based view of the firm, keeping up the Thompson/Strickland's Strategic Management commitment to currentness in thought, excellence in package, and reliability overall.
