Synopsis

Most business books are bland or dull, or both. This volume is neither: John Kay combines insightful ysis with wit and verve. In this book, we meet heroes as diverse as Sun Tzu, Jacques Derrida, and Jack Welch: we study businesses as diverse as Honda Motors, the grandes marques of Champagne, and Jenners department store in Princes Street, Edinburgh; we learn why size doesn t matter, why brakes differ from signals, how to value businesses, and why the author was wrong to tell students that Boeing s position in the civil aircraft market was unassailable. In less than two hundred pages, John Kay provides a lively introduction to corporate strategy and a guide to key issues of modern business today.
