'This book provides a powerful systems approach to formulate and implement strategic change. The authors develop a practical framework that makes it possible to break down and evaluate the complex aspects of strategic choice in large organizations operating in a chaotic world.

The framework was extremely helpful in both occasions.' - James Maguire, Founder of Philadelphia Insurers, USA
