Chasing Strategic Success (Electronic book text)

How can you build and maintain an effective talent strategy? Why do seemingly good strategies fail? Strategy remains one of the most exigent of organizational challenges, and will continue to do so as long as business exists. Today, more and more corporations are waking up to the notion that strategy is not so much concerned with how quickly an organization can adopt the trends and new ideas that come along, but rather how several individual components of strategy can be skillfully and purposefully interweaved to create an organization brimming with confidence in facing its markets and competitors. Strategy, therefore, is not about embracing the latest big thing in the vain hope of remaining relevant; it is about the art of alignment.

With this Briefing you can get up to speed on some of today's most important strategic challenges.
