Strategy, of course, has engaged the attention of business people ever since it was first spoken, and many great books have been written in an attempt to expound it.
In spite of all that has been written about business strategy and not wishing to add anything further to the subject in an exhaustive sense, my plan is to contend with something of the advantages that are to be gained by strategists taking a dynamic view of strategy.
This small book covers a range of subjects connected with strategy formulation and management. It should not be taken as the be all and end all of strategy nor should it be considered as an exhaustive piece on the subject. But the 12 items included herein offer the tools to craft superior strategies - without the verbiage!

An expert entrepreneur such as yourself needs to have a resume that blows the competition away, competing with all other comers on their terms–which might be substantially different from the ones that have driven your success in the past.
