Editorial Reviews

Review

" This Handbook is a wonderful collection of articles from the top scholars in the strategy field. It summarises the latest academic thinking on a number of issues that are central to strategy and identifies the questions that will pre-occupy strategy research for the next decade. This is must reading for every serious scholar in strategic management and a requirement for every PhD program in the field." Constantinos Markides, LBS

"Hitt, Freeman and Harrison have put together a great Handbook of Strategic Management. The scope and depth of its 25 chapters show how much the field has evolved during the last twenty years. The material is organized in a logical and easily accessible way with lots of references for those who want to further explore a subject. This Handbook will age well on the shelves of students and teachers, scholars, and intellectually curious practitioners." Robert Burgelman, Stanford University

"At long last, this handbook provides a comprehensive reference text for theory and empirical research in strategic management. The scope and thoroughness of the contributions are exceptional. The handbook should be required reading for all Ph.D students in strategic management. And it will be my first stop for a tour of the literature on any topic in strategic management." Constance E Helfat, Dartmouth University

Book Description

The Handbook is structured into five sections that look at the strategic management process, the theoretical foundations of the field, various types of strategy, human factors, & teaching methods.

5.0 out of 5 stars must read, February 1, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Strategic Management: A Stakeholder Approach (Paperback)
Strategic Management by Freeman is a classic. It should be required reading for every manager and MBA student. When Freeman wrote the book, stakeholder thinking was still rather new and unusual - at least in its explicit form -, while it is now, thanks in large part to Freeman, widely accepted.
The book is, like many management books, relevant both to academic research and to day-to-day business. But, unlike many management books, this publications can actually be read both by academics and by managers, which may explain in part its impact.
Thje book makes clear that strategy, especially in the stakeholder-form, requires a proper understanding of both ethics and systems thinking. It should at least make the reader think about both.
