Good Strategy/Bad Strategy: The Difference and Why It Matters By Richard Rumelt

CUT THROUGH THE CORPORATE HYPE, BUZZWORDS, AND EMPTY SLOGANS TO DISCOVER WHAT TRUE, ACTION-ORIENTED STRATEGY REALLY MEANS.

When Richard Rumelt’s Good Strategy/Bad Strategy was first published, it sent a shockwave through the business world by ruthlessly calling out the mishmash of motivational filler and corporate jargon that so often masquerades as genuine strategy. Since then, his original and pragmatic framework has won a global following, helping leaders identify the hallmarks of bad strategy and adopt focused, high-impact approaches that directly tackle real-world challenges.

Far from being a collection of empty ambitions, visionary wishes, or rigid long-term plans, Rumelt argues that true strategy is coherent action backed by a powerful underlying argument. At its heart lies a deep insight into the hidden leverage points of any situation—whether launching a groundbreaking product, managing an enterprise, or navigating a crisis. Drawing on compelling historical and modern examples across all sectors, Good Strategy/Bad Strategy provides the tools you need to sharpen your thinking, ditch the fluff, and deliver results that actually matter.
