The Corporation of the Future (Hardcover): Stuart Orr, Paul Hunter The Corporation of the Future (Hardcover)
Stuart Orr, Paul Hunter
R4,031 Discovery Miles 40 310 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Although largely unseen, the industrial revolution taking place before us is picking up steam dramatically. Dissolution of traditional global trading partnerships, the effect of COVID-19 on supply chains and the formation of new trading blocks, such as China's Belt and Road initiatives, are creating turmoil and rapid change in the international business domain. Continual advances in technology, health treatments, political and societal change are underpinning these transformations. It is unclear just how this revolution will unfold or what the role of the corporation will be in the long run. This book helps us navigate through these challenging times by identifying areas where opportunities will develop. Written by highly qualified experts from a diverse range of backgrounds, the book takes a novel backcast view to present more critical arguments. The book has been set in the not-so-distant future, reflecting back on the changes that have led to a new type of corporation and the conditions that have led to it. Each chapter presents a complimentary view about the nature of and context for the 2040 Future Corporation. The back casting perspective will provide a very effective discipline for readers to analyse contemporary trends while presenting an integrated and balanced future perspective.

R1,122 Discovery Miles 11 220 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Since 2000, more than half of the Fortune 500 companies have either gone bankrupt, been acquired, or are experiencing stagnation or decline as a result of extreme digital and social disruption. In recognition of this dilemma, Corporate Strategy (Remastered) was developed and designed to assist even the most experienced strategy practitioner tackle disruption and all aspects of change head on. This is the first book in the series; it provides a prescriptive solution to the way all approaches to strategy should be practiced. It embodies a context we refer to as Third Wave Strategy and its construct, a fully integrated Strategic Management Framework. The second volume is a fieldbook; it describes the methods and means to ensure successful implementation. An illustration of Third Wave Strategy in practice is reflected in a description of strategy deployed by the highly successful Amazon corporation. Many of the components of strategy that are included in the framework will already be familiar to the reader, while others are very new. Each of the individual components discussed are supported by examples drawn from real-life case studies. The overall value of the book is its representation of a fresh, holistic, dynamic and systemic approach to strategy in a format that, frankly, hasn't existed before. In this book, readers are also introduced to many of the soft/human elements of strategy - the primary components that make it work. Examples of topics addressed include open strategy; communities of strategy practice; reframing; sponsive strategic thinking; systemic, cognitive strategy practice; organisational learning; and strategic business intelligence.

The Seven Inconvenient Truths of Business Strategy (Paperback): Paul Hunter The Seven Inconvenient Truths of Business Strategy (Paperback)
Paul Hunter
R1,975 Discovery Miles 19 750 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

The most damning charge frequently levelled at strategic planning is that of irrelevance. Paul Hunter's The Seven Inconvenient Truths of Business Strategy is an antidote to conventional methods of strategic management that are renowned for being sporadic, biased, poorly articulated and rarely implemented with total success. Drawing on a framework that encapsulates a collection of definitive principles, the author offers a structure to strategy, as a system, and in a format that is representative of a literal reinvention of strategic planning overall; an indicator and explanation of the strategic tools that you already know, but in a more comprehensive format. Paul also provides insights into the collaborative techniques for carrying out the process successfully: formation, evaluation, alignment and implementation. Other topics covered include governance, communication, leadership, learning, teamwork, transformation and the treatment of strategic risk; at the level of a profession. An extended case study, based on the story of Cadbury, the chocolate maker, is woven through the chapters to provide a vibrant illustration of the value and application of the various techniques and processes described. Organisations of all kinds have never needed strategic planning quite as much as they need it today in an environment of increasing complexity, uncertainty and continual change. The Seven Inconvenient Truths of Business Strategy will help you ensure that your strategic process is always effective, visible, professional, relevant and timely.

Since the onset of the Fourth Industrial Revolution numerous corporations have found that traditional 'strategic planning' is ineffectual in responding to, or capitalising on, unforeseen or unexpected change. In recognition of this and associated symptoms of inertia, bankruptcy or worse, this fieldbook was written for the purpose of guiding strategy practitioners through their intended or unintended journey into the future by providing meaningful strategy practices that enable responses to disruption and more importantly, better strategy practices overall. With a focus on strategy practice ('doing' strategy), this book represents a 'how-to' of Third Wave Strategy as defined in detail in the introductory book Corporate Strategy (Remastered) I. In addition to a description of methods that contribute to the philosophy of Third Wave Strategy, readers will witness the experiences of a virtual illustrative company that is travailing the same journey of organisational transformation and renewal that the methodologies described in this book also seek to address. The overall value of the book, therefore, is its ability to relate theory to practice in a factual and experiential format. A key part of the use of the virtual case study based on the illustrative Third Wave Industries (T-wI) Corporation is the blending of the system and process mechanisms that are a part of Third Wave Strategy and its framework, the strategy tools and techniques that are drawn from new and existing strategy practice and the soft issues that are represented by the human responses to change, as well as the management of change enacted in a corporate environment.

By taking a close look at materials no previous twentieth-century critic has seriously investigated in literary terms ephemeral journalism, moralistic tracts, questions-and-answer columns, wonder narratives Paul Hunter discovers a tangled set of roots for the early novel. His provocative argument for a new historicized understanding of the genre and its early readers brilliantly reveals unexpected affinities. Patricia Meyer Spacks, Edgar F.
