Strategic Management in a Global Era: The Playbook for Competitive Advantage in a Volatile World | Book Publisher International

 

This book examines strategic management as practised in an era defined by globalisation, rapid technological change, social transformation, and increasing regulatory complexity. It brings together foundational and advanced perspectives, covering key areas such as competitive advantage, industry and environmental analysis, internal resource evaluation, business- and corporate-level strategies, international expansion, business growth through mergers and acquisitions, strategy implementation and control, strategic resource management, and strategy evaluation. The book also addresses contemporary themes, including organisational change and leadership, digital transformation, artificial intelligence, sustainability, stakeholder capitalism, platform-based competition, cultural diversity, and government regulation in global markets. The central aim of the book is to provide a rigorous yet practical framework for understanding and applying strategic management in today’s interconnected and dynamic business environment. As technological disruption, geopolitical shifts, and rising social expectations reshape how organisations operate, traditional strategy models alone are no longer sufficient. This work responds to that reality by equipping students, managers, and policy-oriented leaders with analytical tools and strategic perspectives that reflect modern competitive conditions. The book adopts an integrated scholarly approach, drawing on systematic reviews of peer-reviewed research, international policy and regulatory documents, and established strategic frameworks. These are complemented by applied models and case-based illustrations that link theory to practice. The analysis shows that sustainable competitive advantage increasingly arises from dynamic capabilities, digital intelligence, ethical leadership, stakeholder engagement, and organisational adaptability rather than from static resources or protected market positions. By bringing classical strategy together with emerging global challenges, this book provides a comprehensive and forward-looking guide to strategic management in the twenty-first century.
