I liked the clear presentation and the use of case studies and exercises for reflective learning throughout." - Professor Thomas Ahrens, Professor of Accounting, Warwick Business School, UK "The author has managed to adopt an innovative approach which helps to enrich the arguments and the reasoning, and he has brought up a good and extensive academic literature on strategy and planning issues to support the development of his models and enhance the discussion. The book is very welll supported with many charts, diagrams, appendices, and case studies to support the discussion and the argument. The inclusion of the developing countries in this topic of strategy and planning is very interesting." - Professor Kadim al-Shaghana, TQM & Excellence, Faculty of Organisation and Management, Sheffield Hallam University, UK "Andre de Waal's book provides a comprehensive overview of the issues relating to strategy and measurement. Thought provoking, practical and well written, this book will be a valuable addition to everyone's bookshelf." - Professor Andy Neely, Cranfield School of Management, UK "Strategic Performance Management has the great benefit of insights from the combination of De Waal's academic and practical experience in his subject.
