Good Strategy Bad Strategy: The Difference and Why It Matters by Richard P. Rumelt

5.0

This is the first book that I've seriously highlighted, mainly because it struck a chord with me and seemed to be full of sensible advice about the characteristics of both good and bad strategy. I can see myself using some of the content at work to help me and my colleagues develop better strategies and avoid some of the pitfalls.

If you had to start somewhere with reading about strategy this is a very good place to start. I've got several years of experience in government doing strategy and I've studied it academically as well, so I'm applying a wide evidence base and this is a good book about strategy.
