Description: "The expert in battle seeks his victory from STRATEGIC ADVANTAGE and does not demand it from his men." —Sun Tzu

Want to win? Tired of losing? Learn strategy from the masters! "Strategic Advantage" is a collection of powerful, winning techniques from the time of Troy to today. It covers a wealth of strategic principles for war, business, politics, games, martial arts, and general life. It also includes a compelling section on ethics. The book first mines a wide range of information from 87 master strategists, then refines it into the memorable "high five" principles of "strategic advantage" (handy, ready-reachable "electric" power tools) that allow you to better understand and quickly recall "how to win" in almost any competitive or cooperative situation.

This insight-filled book unveils powerful moves to win most anytime, anywhere. Written by a successful corporate director and West Pointer, it makes protecting yourself much easier. The essence of winning can be distilled from principles common to all successful human action. Of many actions open for examination, two are highly important: competition and cooperation. Studying competition yields insights into winning in fights for rights or interests. Studying cooperation brings skill at winning in groups with shared goals.

To cover these subjects, you can sift through the strategy books of master theorists from Sun Tzu, through Machiavelli and Clausewitz, to Drucker and Deming. You can also read about master practitioners from Ulysses, through Napoleon and Lee, to modern-day captains of industry and esteemed statesmen. To aid you in such effort, this book tries to unearth, consolidate, and integrate the works of these master strategists. Distilling the often hidden underlying essence of competition and cooperation, it reveals the universal rules of winning, those simple yet critical formulas that change a situation to your advantage. In doing so, it crystallizes the proven, powerful methods of attack and defense for your use in virtually any application.
