"The root cause of business success is discipline, and that is especially true in strategy development. This book lays out a disciplined framework that will allow today's leaders to identify the difference between a temptation and a genuine opportunity this is the essence of winning and losing in a rapidly changing world."
MICHAEL J. CAVE, Senior Vice President at the Boeing Company and President of Boeing Capital Corporation
"In Compete Smarter, Not Harder, Bill Putsis advocates a level of focus that requires strategic use of information to set smart limits. To keep their organizations competitive, leaders need to know and sometimes embrace their market's limits through strategic prioritization. Smart leaders first apply analytics to explore the boundaries of their market to uncover new opportunities. Then they make fact-based decisions at every subsequent turn. Businesses that fail often do so, not because their leaders didn't work hard enough, but because they didn't carefully choose where to compete. This book delivers the principles and tools to navigate those choices."
JIM DAVIS, Chief Marketing Officer, SAS
