There are two kinds of companies today – those who are facing major strategic challenges and those who will face them. Indeed, almost all corporate leaders struggle with developing a strategy that works. Fifty (50) percent of leaders don’t believe they have a winning strategy to begin with and nearly all report missing major opportunities in the market. This is because where their company aims to go is disconnected from what it is able to accomplish.
Strategy That Works, a new book from Harvard Business Review Press by authors Paul Leinwand, Principal at PwC’s Strategy& and Cesare Mainardi, retired CEO of Strategy&, demystifies the perennial question of “why are certain companies so successful?” Strategy That Works guides corporate leaders through real-life examples of how successful companies around the world have bridged the gap between strategy and execution to rise to the top of their industries.
