Strategyman vs. the Anti-Strategy Squad by Rich Horwath
BEST STRATEGY BOOK OF 2018: AXIOM BUSINESS BOOK AWARDS
From the New York Times bestselling author on strategy
Technobody--maker of wearable technologies--is under attack. Its strategic plan is slowly being killed by the top 20 strategy challenges (villains) every company faces: bad meetings (Meeting Menace), fire drills (Fire Driller), silos (Silo-Clops), and too many priorities (Dr. Yes). They are members of the Anti-Strategy Squad, a gang whose mission is to cause mass strategycide and global bankruption. But Technobody will not fail without a fight. Led by its fearless managers and three superheroes--StrategyMan, Innovatara, and Purposeidon--they will summon all of its strategic thinking powers to wage one final war against bad strategy and save its plan.
