The Essence of Strategy

by Dave Aron

Strategy is the discipline that sits above all others. Strategy is about how to win. Strategy has the potential to lift us repeatedly and sustainably from the ugliness of a brute force world. I wrote this book because whilst strategy is incredibly important and powerful, it is almost always poorly understood, defined, articulated and executed. Enjoy.

Great fast read

Reads a lot like the art of war but with a focus on strategy. Great to read while on the plane/train

"The Essence of Stategy" by Dave Aron is the most concrete and useful work on Strategy I have read so far. It is not a book for everyone: it is especially written for senior people who live day in day out the difficult process of building, communicating and implementing complex strategies and want to improve this skill with further insights and distilled wisdom coming from experience. The start of the book, with the description of the brute force is a masterpiece, and the rest of the book is just a minegold of useful ideas to implement just now.
