- 9-step framework of strategic thinking
- provides the reader with a variety of tools and examples for strategic thinking, project management, negotiation tactics, strategy development etc.

A tad prescriptive for my liking (generally), however, the material contained within could be a helpful resource to organizational leaders. Section 2 could serve as a checklist for those implementing new strategies, and for that reason, the book has value.

Not enough reliable information on this book, too much unsupported details, and some instances did not even made any sense,
