Strategic Intuition : The Creative Spark In Human Achievement

  • Strategic Intuition : The Creative Spark In Human  Achievement
  • Attribution

    William Duggan
  • Publication Details

    Book, Columbia Business School Pub, 2007
  • Description

    We call it strategic intuition, because it gives you an idea for action-a strategy. (Malcolm Gladwell wrote about this kind of intuition in Blink.) The third kind, strategic intuition, is not a vague feeling, like ordinary intuition. He now gives us this eye-opening book that shows how strategic intuition lies at the heart of great achievements throughout human history: the scientific and computer revolutions, women’s suffrage, the civil rights movement, modern art, microfinance in poor countries, and more. Three kinds of strategic ideas apply to human achievement: * Strategic analysis, where you study the situation you face * Strategic intuition, where you get a creative idea for what to do * Strategic planning, where you work out the details of how to do it.
