<p><strong>"I recommend <i>Beyond Strategy – The Impact of Next Generation Companies </i>to any executive. It has been an eye-opener for me, in particular because the practical case-descriptions demonstrate how next generation companies may obtain powerful results by trading in well-known recipes for a more aggressive mindset, reversing the rules of the game. Who would like to sit back as with clipped wings when unforeseen black swans enter center stage?"</strong> <em>- Jørgen Buhl Rasmussen, President & CEO, Carlsberg A/S, Denmark</em><em> </em></p><p><strong>"<i>Beyond Strategy</i> is a really important book - it reminds us how much bad advice there is out there about the secrets of corporate success, and it provides refreshing advice about how companies should chart their own course to achieve success."</strong> <em>- Julian Birkinshaw,</em><em> Professor of Strategy and Entrepreneurship, London Business School, UK</em></p><p><strong>"This book is extremely valuable, as it is not only based on American thinking but also takes a global perspective on future strategies, including strong examples from Latin America, the Middle East, India and China.

Normally, you are bombarded with existing knowledge – with this book you will gain valuable insight into a new mindset needed to better understand and handle uncertainties, risks and unpredictable elements in the equation."</strong> <em>- Chen Qiwei, </em><em>Founding Partner, Chairman, ABC Capital, China</em></p><p><strong>"This book offers a new angle on strategy.
