About the Book

The fundamental challenge facing business leaders is to drive performance into the future. To tackle it effectively, they need a clear understanding of what causes performance to improve or deteriorate over time and what power they have to change this trajectory for the better. Without such an understanding, they risk making poor choices about their future, either by failing to exploit promising opportunities or else by pursuing objectives they can never achieve. The Critical Path sets the agenda for building business strategy. It seeks to provide managers with sound answers to three crucial questions: Why is our business performance following its current path? Where is it going if we carry on as we are? How can we design a robust strategy to transform this performance in the future? Existing management tools and approaches offer little help with these issues. Here, we provide reliable, practical frameworks that combine to create a living picture of how an enterprise actually works. They show you how to find the levers that are under your control, and how to choose the right ones to accomplish your specific goals. They suggest how you can defeat competitors in your efforts to develop your future, and deal with the powerful external forces that can thwart your plans or work in your favor. The Critical Path is the road your organization travels in order to build and sustain the resources and capabilities that will shape its future. This book provides a practical, in-depth guide to help you in this difficult but rewarding journey. About the Author Kim Warren is a Teaching Fellow in Strategic Management at .
