摘要

It is in 1971 that Andrews, Kenneth published his highly influential textbook, “A Concept of Corporate Strategy”. Fifty years have passed. The field of “corporate strategy” has advanced a lot and also become much more complex. Drawing from his own research and rich experience in teaching and consulting, Professor Joe Bower will review the major developments in the field and suggest ways to make the teaching of corporate strategy more effective.
