So why do so few leaders understand what strategic thinking really means? There are plenty of books out there on corporate strategy, but, until now, few have explained how individual executives can practice strategic thinking on a daily basis to guide their business. Leaders need a concrete framework they can use to keep their careers vital through innovation and inspiration--not a theoretical introduction to strategy.

In this book, Horwath focuses on advanced strategic thinking that will drive results in the short- and long-term. His three-discipline approach breaks strategy down into its fundamentals: Coalesce, Compete, and Champion. Effective strategic leadership starts with a bird's-eye perspective, but it doesn't end there. Incorporating new insights and influencing commitment are part and parcel of advanced strategy. Through research, exercises, thought models, and lucid explanations of key concepts, \u003ci\u003eElevate\u003c\/i\u003e guides leaders in the process of building these essential skills. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe majority of organizations say that strategic thinking is the most underdeveloped skill among their senior leaders.

This book demonstrates beyond a doubt that more advanced strategic thinking among managers would lead to greater strategic innovation and fewer fire drills, freeing leadership to take the initiative necessary to drive the organization to the next level. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStaying ahead of the competition is crucial for businesses, but competition is stiff at the individual level, too.
