Quatrième de couverture

Good strategic managers are good general managers. Successful strategic management requires an ability to see the organization as a whole, to step out of the functional mindsets that students and managers tend to acquire through previous course work or work experience. Strategic Management: A Cross-Functional Approach is the first text to truly integrate the fields of management, finance/accounting, international business, information systems, and marketing in a systematic and cohesive model.

Features of the book:
  • The theory and tools of strategic management are introduced and discussed from a cross-functional perspective.
  • Emphasis is on value creation for the customer, the employee, and the owner.
  • Each chapter begins with a "focus company" example such as Nike, Microsoft, and Hilton, which is then referred to throughout the chapter to illustrate key points.
  • A text-specific Web site with updated information and resources is available at www.prenhall.com/porth.
