Successful Strategies is a fascinating new study of the key factors that have contributed to the development and execution of successful strategies throughout history. With a team of leading historians, Williamson Murray and Richard Hart Sinnreich examine how, and to what effect states, individuals and military organizations have found a solution to complex and seemingly insoluble strategic problems to reach success. Bringing together grand, political and military strategy, the book features thirteen essays which each explores a unique case or aspect of strategy. The focus ranges from individuals such as Themistocles, Bismarck and Roosevelt to organizations and bureaucratic responses. Whether discussing grand strategy in peacetime or that of war or politics, these case studies are unified by their common goal of identifying in each case the key factors that contributed to success as well as providing insights essential to any understanding of the strategic challenges of the future.

Strategic planning is vital to achieving success in any endeavor in life. Whether you are an entrepreneur, a corporate CEO, a colunteer for a community project, or trying to organize your personal life, it's important to have strategies in place that will help you succeed. I am really excited about what the authors in the book had to say. If I had not interviewed these outstanding, successful men and women I don't think the subject the talked about would have occurred to me. Who would have thought "reinventing diversity" or "the power of procrastination" would be success strategies? One of the authors in this chapter said that we are performing in an era where knowledge is power. He went on to say"I think the key is applying that knowledge with laser-like focus. This means ruthless prioritization on what needs to be accomplished in order to yeild the highest payoff in cultures of high demand." The chapters in this book will help you discover core issues that may be challenging you or keeping success just out of reach. I am sure that you will be able to use the information these authors have shared to empower your dreams and goals into reality. Remember success doesn't just happen-you make it happen
