Rejuvenating the Mature Business: The Competitive Challenge by C.W.F. Baden-Fuller
Providing an approach to corporate strategy, this study calls into question many of the leading theories in strategic management. Instead of emphasizing the decline of industries or economic sectors when explaining business success or failure, the authors place the individual enterprise itself at centre stage and show how particular businesses and management teams can achieve significant turn-around even in the most hostile environments. They demonstrate how innovative managers have built entrepreneurial organizations through experimentation, imagination and skill enhancement at all levels.
