"Three Moves Ahead" shows how classic chess strategies address the
#1 problem of Information Age executives: how to move quickly in
the face of incalculable complexities and unexpected change. This
witty and novel guide, written for non-players, is packed with
scores of real-world examples showing how top CEOs use Grandmaster
techniques to win on Wall Street. Readers will see how a "strong
square" strategy drove Adobe's rise from niche player to industry
giant, as well as Western Union's success through a hundred years
of technology changes. They'll learn how AOL has played a crucial
"exchange sacrifice" to revive its fortunes, and how Google is
taking turf from Microsoft with a "minority attack." Most
importantly these days, they'll find out "what to do when you don't
know what to do," and avoid the fate of companies like Polaroid,
Gateway, and our dearly departed Ma Bell.
"A fun ride from Apprentice to Business Grandmaster. Grab it
