Strategic thinking has become a core capability for business leaders globally. Now in its fifth edition, this comprehensive text is an original primer for how successful strategists learn to think strategically. It delineates and defines strategic thinking as an advanced, conceptual cognitive capability, focusing on the nonlinear and informal nature of strategic thinking. The book highlights the role of informal learning, underscores the relevance of engaging in the arts, and has global application for those tasked with making strategy in this rapidly changing world.
This edition has been fully updated to include a new chapter on AI and strategic thinking, as well as expanded coverage of the critical reflective process and the challenges of introducing strategic thinking across cultures. Additional pedagogical features have been incorporated, including more discussion questions and exercises to engage debate and reflection, additional scenarios, and case vignettes.
Learning to Think Strategically is vital reading for MBA, strategy, leadership development, and executive education students. Its practical nature also makes it valuable for business and policy executives, as well as for managers and emerging leaders looking to develop their strategic thinking skills. Online resources include PowerPoint slides, a test bank, and video clips.
