Developing Strategic Thought by Bob Garratt

Shaping and transforming an organization to meet the demands of a shifting market place means continual learning and adapting. This book addresses the fundamental roles of chairmen and directors in directing the organization through a learning process called strategic thought. The future of an organization involves more than the management of immediate problems and issues - direction-givers need purpose and passion, vision and values to energize their organization, balanced with imagination and a capacity to take decisions in times of uncertainty. This book illustrates the neccesity and the advantages of using strategic thinking and how this differs from strategic planning.

Bob Garratt is editor of the Successful Manager and Strategist series and author of ‘The Learning Organization’, ‘Learning to Lead’ and ‘The Fish Rots from the Head’. He has worked in many European countries, the USA, Australia and New Zealand and has been developing management education in China and Hong Kong since 1976. He lives in north London.
