Strategic Management and Business Policy with MyManagementlab

A class-tested approach to Strategy for Strategic Management and Business Policy courses Wheelen and Hunger's class-tested approach to teaching Strategy is brought into sharper focus with a new emphasis on globalization, innovation, and sustainability. This text equips students with the strategic concepts they will need to know as they face the issues that all organizations must build upon to push their businesses forward. For the first time in 30 years, the 14th edition has added two new authors to the text. Alan Hoffman, a major contributor to the 13th edition, is a former textbook author and world-renowned author of strategy business cases, and Chuck Bamford, who was a student of Tom Wheelen and David Hunger back in 1980 at the University of Virginia (McIntire School of Commerce), has authored four other textbooks. They join J. David Hunger and bring a fresh perspective to this extraordinarily well-researched and practically crafted text.PART 1 Introduction to Strategic Management and Business Policy CHAPTER 1 Basic Concepts of Strategic Management CHAPTER 2 Corporate Governance 42 CHAPTER 3 Social Responsibility and Ethics in Strategic Management 70 PART 2 Scanning the Environment 93 CHAPTER 4 Environmental Scanning and Industry Analysis 94 CHAPTER 5 Internal Scanning: Organizational Analysis 136 PART 3 Strategy Formulation 173 CHAPTER 6 Strategy Formulation: Situation Analysis and Business Strategy 174 CHAPTER 7 Strategy Formulation: Corporate Strategy 204 CHAPTER 8 Strategy Formulation: Functional Strategy and Strategic Choice 236 PART 4 Strategy Implementation and Control 269 CHAPTER 9 Strategy Implementation: Organizing for Action 270 CHAPTER 10 Strategy Implementation: Staffing and Directing 300 CHAPTER 11 Evaluation and Control 328 PART 5 Introduction to Case Analysis 363 CHAPTER 12 Suggestions for Case Analysis 364 PART 6 Cases in Strategic Management 1-1
