The Emergent Approach to Strategy: Adaptive Design & Execution (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781637422618)

A NEW CLARITY FOR STRATEGY THEORY AND PRACTICE

Consultants and academics continue to report chronic failures of strategy practice.Two causes dominate: strategy is still not fully defined, and strategy practice is still largely based on a planned versus adaptive view of the world.

The emergent approach practice includes:

• An agile method for strategy framework design
