Every strategic game - chess, football, business - is composed of the same three distinct phases: an opening, a middle game, and an endgame, each demanding a radically different problem-solving approach. Yet in the field of business, strategists persistently cling to logical methods regardless of the phase of game they are in. Companies teach their executives to play like novice chess players, flooding them with tools, frameworks and models nearly always rooted in logic.




Over the past 10 years Kaihan Krippendorff has studied the corporate strategies of hundreds of large and mid-sized companies worldwide. Now in a brand new edition of his book, "Hide a Dagger Behind a Smile," he will share the results a two-year study into the 100 most competitive companies of the last decade. He shows that companies that produce a decade of dominant growth, profitability and value creation, begin not with traditional logic, nor with intuition, but by applying one of seven strategic openings from their playbooks including:




- Coordinate the uncoordinated




- Force your adversary into a two-front battle




- Move early to the next battle ground




Learn how to apply these and the remaining seven most powerful strategic moves to your business. Come to Kaihan's book launch at Books & Books, 265 Aragon Ave, Coral Gables, starting at 6:30pm on March 20th.
