What You Need to Know about Strategy Summary

What You Need to Know about Strategy by Jo Whitehead

In any career in business, chances are that the time will come when someone will ask you to do a strategy for something. Too often, this will be a cue for stress at work and sleepless nights.

What You Need to Know about Strategy shows that it doesn't have to be like this. Taking you step-by-step through the basics of what you need to know to come up with a great strategy, it shows:

  • That getting the right answers depends on asking the right questions
  • Why priorities matter
  • How to map out your internal and external situation
  • How to deal with uncertainty
  • How to make tough choices
  • What your brain does while you're doing strategy

By cutting out the theory, and focusing on the things you need to know and do to come up with a killer strategy, this book means that you never need to panic again.
