SPOTLIGHT SHINING ON @stratandbiz strategy+business @BoozCompany

About strategy+business


strategy+business (s+b) is an award-winning management magazine, published in print and on the Web for decision makers in businesses and organizations around the world. Our purpose is to illuminate the complex choices that leaders face — in strategy, marketing, operations, human capital, public presence, governance, and other domains — and the impact of their decisions. Our pragmatic but far-ranging focus helps companies navigate the transition into the emerging global economy.

strategy+business is published by the global management consulting firm Booz & Company. The articles we publish are characterized by:

Distinguished contributors. We feature writing by chief executives and other well-known corporate leaders, best-selling business thinkers and philosophers, prominent academics and researchers, seasoned practitioners from Booz & Company, and journalists with a track record in revealing the patterns below the surface.

Distinctive content. Our purpose is to find and share the ideas and stories that raise the game for management, written and expounded clearly enough to provide the basis for thoughtful action. Through in-depth feature stories, thought leader interviews, and strategic commentaries, each issue of strategy+business provides an informed, global perspective on ideas and practices relevant to large-scale corporations. Ongoing features and studies include:

•The “Global Innovation 1000” study, examining corporate spending on research and development each year

•“CEO Succession”: an overview of the trends affecting the length of chief executive tenure and the nature of turnover in the role

•Our compendium of “Recent Research,” summarizing academic studies and their implications for real-world corporate action

•“Author’s Choice,” in which writers introduce favorite excerpts from other business and management writers’ books

•A set of roundtable discussions being organized with the World Economic Forum

•Provocative “Thought Leader” interviews and “Creative Mind” profiles, going in depth with notable figures such as former chief executive and author Lawrence Bossidy; Harvard Business School professor and author Clayton Christensen; psychologist and Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman; Internet pioneer and Harvard professor Lawrence Lessig; and Kishore Mahbubani, author, diplomat, and professor at the National University of Singapore.

•Coverage of trends in neuroscience, lean thinking, emerging markets, corporate governance, and digital media, and their implications for business leadership

•Valuable thinking and practice in marketing, media, operations, health care, innovation, finance, energy, and more

Discerning readers. strategy+business has a global audience of more than 500,000 readers, which includes print and digital subscribers and website registrants. More than 170,000 readers have signed up for s+b’s weekly and monthly e-newsletters; 30,000 tech-savvy readers have subscribed to s+b’s digital edition, and the s+b iPad app is downloaded an average of 1,000 times per week. A Monroe Mendelsohn Research study of s+b’s audited print circulation found that 74 percent of s+b readers were C-suite executives ranked vice president or higher. More than a third held the position of chairman, CEO, or president of their company. In all, a majority of s+b’s readers are top corporate decision makers at major U.S. and international corporations (those with at least US$1 billion in assets). Our audience also includes decision makers at smaller companies, managers rising within companies, prominent business and management academics, and others with an interest in understanding the systems, practices, and ideas that define our world.

Praise for strategy+business:

“I find many, many things that I want to read in strategy+business. Month after month, year after year they’ve got what I think is the right stuff.… [The] content is solid gold.” — Tom Peters

The work s+b is doing is the best in the field.” — Joseph Jaworski, author of Synchronicity

Booz & Company “scores highest overall when it comes to distinctive, opinionated and interesting thought leadership, much of which appears in its magazine, strategy+business,” according to White Space, a report by Arkimeda on intellectual capital by the world’s 40 biggest consulting firms.

It is a real contribution to the practice of leadership.” — Ram Charan, coauthor, Execution (and s+b contributor)

“I usually measure the ‘value’ of a business magazine by the percentage of articles that are directly relevant to my corporate role. Over the last year or so, I have found that strategy+business grades out at about 75 percent on this scale, making it by far the highest ‘value’ business magazine I read.” — Mel Bost, ConocoPhilips

“My only disappointment is that the magazine comes only four times a year. I am left wanting more!” — James O’Toole, the Bill Daniels Distinguished Professor in Business Ethics at the University of Denver’s Daniels College of Business, author of Creating the Good Life: Applying Aristotle's Wisdom to Find Meaning and Happiness (and s+b contributor)
