Book excerpt: There have been many books written about how to apply the concept of corporate strategy, yet few discuss the meaningfulness of the applications involved. Until now, not a single book has been written about the reasons people give to justify their study and advocacy of corporate strategy as a method of talking about the modern corporation. Taking a cue from the nineteenth-century philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, Gilbert argues in The Twilight of Corporate Strategy that those who study corporate strategy can begin to justify their efforts once they take the very meaning of corporate strategy to be an open, ethical question. Gilbert creates a Nietzschean analysis in which he places the idea of corporate strategy in the "twilight" between the "daylight" of continued usage and the "darkness" of irrelevance for humans. This unique analysis is based on an exploration of the corporate strategy concept in an ethical twilight. Gilbert reinterprets the dominant contemporary approach, which he calls "strategy through process", as an ethical commentary on modern corporations. Gilbert goes on to create a contractarian ethical rendition of strategy, which he calls "strategy and justice". Through the use of a comparative critical argument, he demonstrates what he believes to be sound reasons for abandoning more traditional approaches to corporate strategy and for reconstructing it in accordance with "strategy and justice". He concludes that such attempts at advancement will provide hope that the corporation can be interpreted as a context in which humans can flourish, even as the dominant use of that concept often denies such hope.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this volume examine the emergence of the concept of corporate social responsibility, and the uses that have been made of the language of corporate responsibility to explore the business/society relationship. The first section traces the emergence of the concept of corporate social responsibility as a way of understanding and framing the business/society relationship. Section two of the volume looks at "Definitions and ethical justifications" with a view to exploring current discussions of the nature, scope and source of the social responsibilities of corporations. Section three, "CSR and Management: Critical Reflections", explores the integration of CSR theories and justifications into business management and business management theories. Articles in the final section of the volume apply the concept of corporate social responsibility, and the theoretical frameworks and analytical tools to which it has given rise, to the examination and resolution of specific social issues arising out of the economic activities of corporations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the era of ever expanding markets and ample resources ends, governments and business will have to behave differently. The world is facing weak economic growth, limits to affordable resources and increasing concerns about environmental consequences. During the boom times, governments championed de-regulation and business responded by adopting an anything-goes attitude. In these straitened times, strategic analysis has to engage with the challenges that society faces to create resilient corporations fit for the 21st century. In Corporate Strategy in the Age of Responsibility, Peter McManners, who has for nine years run strategy workshops on the Henley MBA focusing on the global business environment, sets about providing a strategic framework for navigating the new economic environment. Chief Sustainability Officers (CSOs) now exist, but they struggle to find the strategic rationale for the improvements they champion. The author argues that their good intentions often lack traction, partly because others in management don’t get it, but also because they are not ambitious enough. The book is not about preaching semi-charitable behaviour or how to enhance the reputation of the corporation instead it is about surviving and thriving in a challenging and changing environment. A corporate audience familiar with strategy books will relate to this book, but will find it steers them towards radically new strategic thinking suitable for a turbulent period of transition.
