The core of the book is about stimulating new strategic thinking and action to enhance the competitiveness of a firm. </p><p><em>Navigating strategic possibilities</em> involves the invention and re-invention of an organisation. Strategic leadership, as a part of this navigation journey, is an integral guiding force of the strategic choices an organisation makes to fulfil its future aspirations. In this book, the key strategic choices related to the competitive advantage and positioning of an organisation are presented in an integrated strategic architecture perspective, and the following seven strategic architecture building blocks are discussed: </p> <ul> <li>Strategic leadership as a key capacity that gives life, meaning and on-going momentum to the strategy of an organisation.</li> <li>The development of views on the external and internal strategic landscape and context of an organisation.</li> <li>Strategy formulation and development which include a menu of strategic options and choices to consider.</li> <li>The development of multiple futures perspectives for an organisation.</li> <li>Strategy execution practices to make it a lived reality for stakeholders.</li> <li>Strategy renewal and innovation practices to refresh the strategy on a continuous basis.</li> </ul><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'The richness of this book is evident, with a breadth, depth and scope that is commendable ... It covers a vast array of contemporary and relevant themes in<br /> the realm of strategy and would serve as a valuable addition to the 21st century management practitioner's strategy toolkit.'<br /> <em>- Dr Cobus Oosthuizen, Dean: Business School, Milpark Education</em><br /> <br /> 'What makes this book different is its very strong focus on the building blocks of strategic management, rather than on the process. It puts leadership at the<br /> core, which is a fundamental shift in approach, and includes strong sections on the business model and scenario planning - vital aspects of modern strategymaking<br /> that are generally neglected in mainstream strategic management books. It also introduces many new tools, frameworks and practical exercises that<br /> enhance the fundamental material.'<br /> <em>- Peet Venter, Professor of Strategy at the Graduate School of Business Leadership (SBL), Unisa</em></p><br>
