In 1965, his book Corporate Strategy: An Analytic Approach to Business Policy for Growth and Expansion was published by McGraw-Hill. It had a significant impact on the business world. 
Prior to the publication of this book, senior managers had little knowledge on how to plan or make decisions on the future of the company. Planning methods then were based on an extended budgeting system, and projecting it several years into the future. They paid little attention to strategic challenges. Ansoff advocated that in developing strategy, the managers must anticipate future environmental challenges to an organisation, and come up with strategic plans to counter these challenges. 
The book introduced the concept of “synergy” to a wider audience for the first time. He summed up synergy as “the 2+2 = 5” effect. In later writings, he refined synergy as “any effect which can produce a combined return on the firm’s resources greater than the sum of its parts.”
In a paper in Milestones in Management Vol 5, explained his Strategic Success Paradigm which was a result of 15 years of research:
1. “There is no universal success formula for all firms.
2. The driving variable which dictates the strategy required for the success of a firm is the level of turbulence in its environment.
3. A firm’s success cannot be optimised unless the aggressiveness of its strategy is aligned with the turbulence in its environment.
4. A firm’s success cannot be optimised unless management capability is also aligned with the environment, and
5. The key internal capability variables which jointly determine a firm’s success are: cognitive, psychological, sociological, political, and anthropological.”
His other books on strategy include: Strategic Management, Macmillan, 1979 and Implanting Strategic Management 2nd edition, Prentice Hall, 1990. He passed away in 2002.
