The strategic dimension of management has grown in importance over the last several decades, largely due to the increasing complexity of modern business organisations. It is therefore not a dimension which any contemporary manager or administrator can afford to ignore. In order to examine how today’s situation has arisen – with the emphasis being placed on strategic management – we must look back to the ‘roots’ of management thinking with regard to management as an integrated activity, and the various elements or functions of which it is composed. This book provides an insight into the principles of strategic management, and will be useful to the students and practitioners of management.
