What does strategy mean to the founder and CEO of a coaching and
consulting company whose mission is to create inclusive and
values-driven cultures where people can achieve their full
potential while positively impacting society? How is sustainable
strategic decision-making viewed by a former Member of the European
Parliament? Developed in consultation with lecturers, students, and
professionals, the research-driven process-practice model of
strategy in Strategy: Theory, Practice, Implementation places
implementation at its core, enabling students to develop a
crystal-clear understanding of how strategy operates in a culture
of dynamism, adaptability, and change. The authors' wealth of
teaching, research, and practitioner experience shines through in
their writing as they strike the perfect balance between clarity
and rigour. They expertly cover all the core areas of strategy,
using carefully paced, step-by-step guidance to apply theories and
models of strategy to a diverse range of examples, making the text
the most practical of its kind. Moving beyond the limits of

(and accompanying video interviews) gathered from professionals

When businesses are required to send customer data to government,
their systems and their employees become part of a wider security
framework. Their commercial activities become shot through with
insecurities and they are placed in a kind of double jeopardy: a
failure to address these regulations can result in both national
and commercial insecurity. The Private Security State? is the first
full-length academic text to address the enrolment of the private
sector in national security surveillance regimes. Through detailed
empirical analysis, it questions how private organizations achieve
compliance with demands for customer data. The book revolves around
case studies of two public-private surveillance regimes: Anti-Money
Laundering/Counter Terror Finance in retail financial services and
the EBorders in the retail travel industry.
