Tail wagging the strategy dog?
Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoints practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the papers in context. Findings For many parents, one of the singular frustrations of conversation with their children is the sheer lack of, erm, conversation. For example, if you manage five minutes round the same table to have dinner, the discussion may go something like this: Mum: “What did you do at school today darling?” Thirteen-year-old daughter: “Nothing”; Dad: “Son, what did you do today then?”; Nine-year-old son: “Dunno”. Practical implications Provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations. Originality/value The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information, and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
