Strategic Planning Kit For Dummies Paperback – November 15, 2011

Still great for today’s market, although some updates could be added & electronic download for Mac users.

This my first attempt at strategic planning for my church. This book did a great job outlining the process. It includes a section directed at non-profits. Very helpful, because some of the chapters that were architected around for-profit companies were difficult to apply. Also, I like that the book outlined steps to get started, develop a plan, and execute it.

Very practical. It helped me greatly while I was writing my MBA thesis and doing a consulting project at a hospital. It is a very hands-on approach. It is perfect for the MBA student who has to get her hands dirty with some field work and needs help translating classwork into practice. It might be a bit insufficient for those expecting a highly academic book.

It's an amazing read. I bought this book for my friend who is pitching to investors for their involvement. Well I have an MBA and this book is right on with the material a Strategic Plan should include. I returned mines because she had purchased it too and hers came first.

Good information: I bought the kindle version of this book. I really should have bought the book which comes with a CD that would be helpful.

The book was well written and have a ton of good information. Good approach and methodology towards developing corporate strategies. A must-read book for C-staff. I would have given it a 5 star but it also lacked good corporate samples.

Excellent source for a strategic Planning process. I bought the Kindle version and its practical approach is very useful. The supplementary content ( originally on CD in the hardcopy version) is AVAILABLE at Wiley's website following the instructions provided.

This book was everything I needed it to be. It was simple, easy to follow and easily adaptable for the strategic plan I was developing for my business unit. I would have preferred Excel templates however.

Got me through operational manager interview presentation !!!

Comprehensive, logical and well set out strategic planning advice. This is not a quick fix planning kit. This book sets out an in depth process to follow. This methodology will help my team to develop a highly focused business strategy.

Perfect for my course.

Excellent book and practical guide to developing a comprehensive strategic plan. Worksheets and additional material on the CD make this a complete guide and very useful tool to enable any organization identify, plan and achieve their strategy for success.

La autora tiene una empresa dedicada a la Planificación Estratégica con el mejor software sobre el tema:[...] la pena es que no tengan una versión pyme más económica con un dashboard muy bien pensado. Tienen magníficos tutoriales en YouTube. Muy, pero que muy recomendable.
