"If you've ever been told to "be more strategic" and wondered how to do it, this is the book for you." -Marshall Goldsmith, New York Times #1 bestselling author of Triggers and What Got You Here Won't Get You There
"This is the book that you've been searching for if you need to take your strategic leadership to the next level. Thomas and Boyle pare down an overwhelming process into six factors for making smart decisions and showing other leaders that you are a strategic peer. Even seasoned leaders will find gems of wisdom from two women who've built successful careers and are eager to share what they've learned." -Jan Fields, Former President, McDonald's USA; on Forbes' "World's 100 Most Powerful Women" and Fortune's "50 Most Powerful Women in Business" lists
"Being more strategic is really about what it takes to be more effective and efficient, leading yourself and others to places you have never been before. Diana and Stacey are correct that this quest is an ongoing journey, which begins with exploring your inner territory before venturing out into the field. Their framework nicely blends the hard and soft skills (quantitative and qualitative) required to move beyond tactics, considering the essential question of "why?" The book comes alive through sharing their own personal journeys (especially hard lessons learned through mistakes), along with many practical illustrations and highlighted action steps." -Barry Z. Posner, PhD; Michael J. Accolti, S.J. Chair; Professor of Leadership, Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara University; and co-author of The Leadership Challenge

"I'm more strategic and successful for having been coached by Diana and Stacey, so I was delighted to find lots of great personal examples throughout the book.
