Research for Breakthrough Strategy: The Quest (Course)
Author: FlevyThis is a 225-page PDF.
BENEFITS
1 - Discover the LEADING EDGE research for strategy
2 - LIFT your strategy to much higher and more sophisticated levels with this research
3 - SAVE a lot in preparation time for research and strategy formulation.
4 - You and your team will get into the right MINDSET for this type of research
5 - SAVE a lot of time in the actual implementation of the needed research
6 - Loaded with NOVEL but tried approaches, hence maximum competitive advantage
7 - You will have optimum COORDINATION between the research and formulation processes.
Research for breakthrough strategy features a much broader scope of market intelligence / data collection activities and approaches as compared to standard strategy market research. It is a journey and adventure; it takes you to another world.
This product presents leading edge research for strategy, with emphasis on the close linkage between research and strategy formulation and implementation. Strategy is mainly about the why, the root causes, so is this research. It is geared towards achieving breakthrough transformation and quantum leap, revolving around creative thinking, innovation and resonating with the future environment.
It is a comprehensive and practical guide covering purpose, scope, methodology and even mindset of research for breakthrough strategy. It compiles in an integrated manner and in one place the key factors that can produce great strategic research.
Furthermore, it contains a number of new approaches, insights and notions for research work leading to breakthrough strategies, and which were tested and refined by the Business and management consultant and researcher Dr. Stephen Sweid.
Ample graphics and metaphors have been incorporated for clarity, retaining, inspiration and enjoyment. This guide has been designed to be equally beneficial to Corporate organizations, profit or non profit, and SMEs, including startups.
