Increase the efficacy of your treatment interventions in
intercultural couples therapy The Intercultural Exeter Couples
Model: Making Connections for a Divided World Through
Systemic-Behavioral Therapy provides practitioners with a thorough
guide to effectively treating intercultural couples. The book
consists of a systematic effort to translate systemic ideas that
take into account a cultural perspective into a highly useable and
practical form. The Intercultural Exeter Couples Model also
attempts to marry two, often distinct, forms of practice: the
systemic and the behavioral. Both approaches have much to
contribute to effective couples' counselling but they are often
theoretically siloed. This book demonstrates the value of using
both approaches simultaneously. This book provides concrete and
practical strategies for implementing systemic and behavioral
approaches to intercultural couples' therapy in a manner consistent
with clinical best practice. Rather than ignoring the significant
and complex impacts that differing cultures can have on a
relationship, The Intercultural Exeter Couple Model puts those
differences front and center, encouraging the therapist to engage
with the cultural mismatch that can be at the core of many couples'
ongoing friction. The book's chapters tackle both the model itself
and a variety of interventions, covering topics including: Teaching
couples how to break patterns and prepare them to establish new
ones Training couples to communicate effectively Establishing new
modes of behavior in couples An explanation of empathic bridging
maneuvers A description of the use of life-space explorations
Perfect for clinicians, students, and professors interested in or
practicing in the field of couples' therapy, The Intercultural
Exeter Couples Model provides readers with an in-depth exploration
of an increasingly important model of couples therapy and
describes, in painstaking detail, the interventions necessary to
achieve positive patient outcomes.

The competitive challenges facing you are more complex and
fast-moving than ever. This environment demands dynamic competitive
strategies-strategies that anticipate and adjust to competitors'
countermoves, shifting customer demands, and changes in the
business world.
Wharton on Dynamic Competitive Strategy offers new perspectives on
competitive strategy from a distinguished group of faculty at
Wharton and other leading business schools around the world. This
book presents the best insights from decades of research in key
areas such as competitive strategy, simulations, game theory,
scenario planning, public policy, and market-driven strategy. It
represents the most cohesive collection of insights on strategy
ever assembled by a leading school of business.
Developed for the thinking manager, Wharton on Dynamic Competitive
Strategy provides deep insights into the true dynamics of
competition. In contrast to popular, quick-fix formulas for
strategic success, this book provides perspectives that will help
you better understand the underlying dynamics of competitive
interactions and make better strategic decisions in a rapidly
changing and uncertain world.
The insights and approaches presented here are illustrated with
real-world examples which demonstrate how these approaches can be
applied to your strategic challenges.
These chapters will help you better address key strategic issues
such as:
* Anticipating competitors' responses using game theory,
simulations, scenario planning, conjoint analysis, and other
tools-and designing the best strategy in light of these expected
responses
* Planning for multiple rounds of competition in the way that chess
players think through multiple moves
* Understanding how changes in technology and public policy or
moves by competitors can undermine your current advantages or
neutralize future advantages
* Broadening your range of options for reacting to moves by
competitors
* Signaling and preempting rivals.
This groundbreaking new book will change your view of strategy and
give you the tools you need to succeed in a dynamic and intensely
challenging world.
