Description
The aim of The Best of Long Range Planning is to bring together the best articles on a particular topic from the Long Range Planning Journal,
so that readers wishing to study a specific aspect of planning can find an authoritative and comprehensive view of the subject, conveniently
published in one volume. This first volume is about the place of strategic planning or strategic management in the leadership and direction
of major businesses. The authors deal with three issues: (1) What should be the role of the chief executive and the board in making and
implementing strategy? (2) How do most chief executives and directors behave in practice? (3) What happens when major companies adopt
strategic management or strategic leadership as a management style?
