A New Way to Think

Over a stellar career Roger Martin has advised the CEOs of some of the world's most successful companies. From the beginning he noted that almost every executive he talked to had a model—a framework or way of thinking that guided their strategy and activities. But these models tended to become automatic so much so that when one didn't work the typical response was just to apply it again—with greater enthusiasm.Martin took a fresh critical approach to helping. When company leaders came to him with fundamental questions—How do you decide where to play and how to win? What is the key to shaping and changing corporate culture? How can you design a successful sustainable innovation process?—his first response was to break the spell of the current model with a memo articulating a new way to think about the problem at hand and a more powerful and effective way to overcome it.Over time these ideas worked their way into Martin's many Harvard Business Review articles. Now for the first time they appear together in A New Way to Think. With his trademark incisive intellect and clarity Martin covers the entire breadth of the management landscape—illuminating the true nature of competition explaining how company success revolves around customers revealing how strategy and execution are really the same thing and much more.PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
