I am pleased to announce the new edition of my text: Strategic Management 9e (2026).
From 2023-2026 my book has been the # 1 textbook in Strategy on VitalSource, the leading digital textbook distribution platform in the U.S. and worldwide. It is also offered through RedShelf and Kortext. Students may purchase directly through these digital platforms, and all Follett, B&N, and independent college bookstores can also source there as well as add my text to their campus "inclusive access" programs.
Strategic Management 9e is now available in three different formats for students:
- AI-enabled ePub. The AI tools provide a "fenced" environment in which only content from within the text can be used; results cannot be exported. So students may use AI here with integrity.
- Traditional eBook "fixed format."
- Traditional print version.
Strategic Management 9e, updated here into 2026, remains the most current strategy text on the market, and it is also the least expensive strategy text for students.
We have also expanded our partnership with Capsim, which provides the leading strategy simulation Capstone in use in academia. Strategic Management 9e can be bundled at a discount with any of their strategy sims.
