About the Book

Introduce the most important theories and views in strategic management today with this concise, yet fully complete, text. Harrison/St. John's FOUNDATIONS IN STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT, Sixth Edition, addresses the most recent changes in today's business environment, including many topics that other strategic management texts often miss. The book thoroughly addresses the traditional economic process model and the resource-based model, as well as the stakeholder theory. This valuable text builds on a traditional theoretical foundation by using engaging examples from many of today's leading firms to demonstrate principles and applications. This edition continues to highlight strategizing in the global arena as well as more focused coverage of stakeholder management. This brief, well-rounded text functions as an indispensable resource for your immediate and long-term success in strategic management.

Review :
"Its brevity and clarity are the advantages. The old style strategic management texts with several hundred pages of narrative and several hundred more pages of cases are stifling to this generation of students. I use this text and/or similar short texts because I have a good chance of getting the students to actually read it. This text does a good job putting the basics of strategy in an abbreviated number of pages." "The text is concise, well-integrated, and covers most of the crucial literature in our field. Moreover, it is based on the foundation of the three most well-informed theories of our field: the industry-based view, the resource-based view, and the stakeholder view of the firm."
