Description

Sun Tzu's Art of War is a classical treatise on military strategy and tactics written approximately 2.500 years ago. It has inspired some of history's greatest military victories. Asian warlords for centuries have followed Sun Tzu's principles. Modern leaders as disparate as Mao Tse-tung and General Dwight Eisenhower have used Sun Tzu's precepts to change the shape of the world. Although it is first and foremost a military work, its significance is not merely confined to military affairs - much of the book is devoted to the relationships between warfare and politics, diplomacy philosophy, and management

According to SUN TZU & MANAGEMENT, a manager seeking success must work towards controlling himself as well as both the internal and external environments. He must look within himself as the starting point in developing an awareness of his strengths and weaknesses. He must then view his immediate internal environment and learn to cope with office politicking and other corporate power games. The manager must then learn the relevance of Sun Tzu's principles in formulating and implementing strategies in the increasingly competitive world of business SUN TZU & MANAGEMENT also explains how the Japanese have benefited from Sun Tzu Art of War to become the world's leading economic power today.

Despite Sun Tzu's archaic fondness for grandiose expressions, his advice on timing, maneuvering, flexibility, and complete knowledge of the enemy's strengths and weaknesses remain as powerful today as when it was first written, SUN TZU & MANAGEMENT is a practical book designed to be enjoyed and to fill a gap in management literature. It covers what should be familiar ground and is based entirely on real-life situations and observations. It will undoubtedly provoke much thought and will simulate managers to assess their own performance and to take positive steps to become more effective in their workplace.
