      Summary of Thinking Strategically (Avinash Dixit and Barry Nalebuff)

      1. WHAT IS STRATEGIC THINKING?

      2. THE FOUR RULES OF STRATEGIC THINKING

      3. STRATEGIC THINKING IN ACTION

      4. STRATEGIC BUSINESS THINKING

      Book Abstract

      MAIN IDEA

      Strategic business skills build on and strengthen the competitive advantage of basic business skills.

      In any business field, there are generally a number of competitors who have roughly equivalent technical and commercial products or services. The companies which prosper do so because of better strategic skills - that is, they take those basic skills and apply them more effectively than do their competitors.

      Strategic business thinking concentrates on maximising commercial opportunities, outthinking rivals, forging strong bonds of cooperation and coordination when it is in your own best interests, and even deciding which business fields not to enter. These decisions are all made on the basis of a thorough understanding of strategic interaction and sound strategic thinking.
