Description: "The contributions in this volume deal with the essence of strategic management." "Three research trends are discussed: strategic change, characterised by in-depth longitudinal studies of changing organisations; research into leadership and top teams; and strategic thinking, the cognitive processes through which organisations and environments are understood and strategies developed." "The focus of the contributions is on understanding complex relationships and uncertain futures, with an emphasis on challenging management understanding and the tacit knowledge of the organisation." "Strategic Thinking: Leadership and the Management of Change gives an excellent insight into the field of strategic change. It provides an extensive and thorough coverage of the subject and will be of enormous benefit to undergraduates and graduates on management courses."--BOOK JACKET.
