Building Blocks for Greater Corporate Success (A New Way to Raise Productivity, Build Financial Strength, and Increase Stakeholder Satisfaction)

In the distant past, Duality Strategic Thinking (DT) began to be used mainly by politically minded people as they strove to capture or maintain power and influence in independent domains of a changing world.

This book emphasizes new ways of using Duality Strategic Thinking (DT) that enable readers to solve management problems arising from the differing, but interlocking, needs and expectations of all stakeholders. It provides methods to solve such problems with an understanding of the interactive relationships between and among all stakeholders. When used on a regular basis, this analysis will help to identify the causes of the problems.

To support this goal, it presents an internal, higher education focused system composed of a dozen or more “Building Blocks” that contains classic management skills, such as listening and providing valuable, need-interlocking performance appraisal techniques. It also presents new knowledge required to implement Duality Thinking problem solving skills. These skills need to be strong and effective. At the same time, firms must find creative ways to continually develop flexible business strategies, enhance problem- solving skills, encourage new ways to train, develop, and retain/reward talent.
