Alexander the Great's Art of Strategy: Business Lessons from the Great Empire Builder

By (author) Partha Bose






| book description |

Alexander the Great (356-323BC) is arguably the greatest military strategist, tactician and ruler in world history. He reigned over Greece, conquered the Persians and marched as far as India. His achievements have influenced and inspired a great number of past and current military, political and business leaders. In business, many of the ideas and concepts associated with decision-making and strategy used today by managers and executives have their origins in Alexander the Great. Partha Bose provides an examination of Alexander the master strategist. He looks at the ideas and actions of Alexander - how they were formed and applied - telling the story of a man whose influence was to extend for centuries later. Examples show how Alexander's thinking and ideas have been applied in contemporary fields such as business, law and politics. On top of his strategic and tactical acumen, Alexander's sensitivity towards people and cultures, and his ability to motivate others, have made him one of the greatest figures in history.
