In the tradition of Octavia Butler, here is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help to shape the futures we want. Change is constant. The world, our bodies, and our minds are in a constant state of flux. They are a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel ourselves against such change, Emergent Strategy teaches us to map and assess the swirling structures and to read them as they happen, all the better to shape that which ultimately shapes us, personally and politically. A resolutely materialist spirituality based equally on science and science fiction: a wild feminist and afro-futurist ride! adrienne maree brown, co-editor of Octavia’s Brood: Science Fiction from Social Justice Movements, is a social justice facilitator, healer, and doula living in Detroit.

This book may be the first of its kind in the world: relating metaphorically relevant segments of a 2,500 year old classic 'Sun Tzu's Art of War' to insights gained through statistical analyses of a corporate database built through capturing CEO's perceptions of strategy processes within major publicly-listed ASEAN corporations (Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines and Indonesia). This research work has captured widespread press attention across the ASEAN countries including Korea Times. The entire research process of documenting the strategy processes in ASEAN corporations and integrating empirical findings with Sun Tzu's classic text took the authors about 7 years. Through analogy, the authors seek to record in their book, how Sun Tzu's prescriptions on strategy are largely borne out in their empirical research of strategy processes within the major, publicly listed corporations within ASEAN: currently the world's most successful economic region. This book is especially relevant to world management now that China - where Sun Tzu continues to be very much revered - is on the path to become by the 21st Century, the world's largest economy. especially relevant to world management thinking linked to Sun Tzu's Art of War

You think you have a winning strategy. But do you? Executives are bombarded with bestselling ideas and best practices for achieving competitive advantage, but many of these ideas and practices contradict each other. Should you aim to be big or fast? Should you create a blue ocean, be adaptive, play to win—or forget about a sustainable competitive advantage altogether? In a business environment that is changing faster and becoming more uncertain and complex almost by the day, it’s never been more important—or more difficult—to choose the right approach to strategy. In this book, The Boston Consulting Group’s Martin Reeves, Knut Haanæs, and Janmejaya Sinha offer a proven method to determine the strategy approach that is best for your company. They start by helping you assess your business environment—how unpredictable it is, how much power you have to change it, and how harsh it is—a critical component of getting strategy right. They show how existing strategy approaches sort into five categories—Be Big, Be Fast, Be First, Be the Orchestrator, or simply Be Viable—depending on the extent of predictability, malleability, and harshness. In-depth explanations of each of these approaches will provide critical insight to help you match your approach to strategy to your environment, determine when and how to execute each one, and avoid a potentially fatal mismatch. Addressing your most pressing strategic challenges, you’ll be able to answer questions such as: • What replaces planning when the annual cycle is obsolete? • When can we—and when should we—shape the game to our advantage? • How do we simultaneously implement different strategic approaches for different business units? • How do we manage the inherent contradictions in formulating and executing different strategies across multiple businesses and geographies? Until now, no book brings it all together and offers a practical tool for understanding which strategic approach to apply. Get started today.
