TOWARDS WISE MANAGEMENT Wisdom and Stupidity in Strategic Decision-making
Towards Wise Management
“This book is a refreshing and out-of-the-box contribution to the discussions on managerial decision-making and leadership. It combines philosophical insights with a series of historical and contemporary case studies that illuminate the multifaceted processes around wisdom and stupidity in critical strategic situations. It provides invaluable reading for students and practitioners of strategic decision-making.” —Henrikki Tikkanen, A. I. Virtanen Professor of Marketing and Consumer Research, Aalto University School of Business, Finland “Wise reflection on wise management by a wise researcher. Tuomo Peltonen’s book offers a badly needed antidote to the superficial leadership discourse of our times. The philosophically profound reflection in this book is not only an academic curiosity but also helps to understand key cases from history and the contemporary world; from the Cuban Missile Crisis, to the Second World War, to iPhone and Nokia.” —Eero Vaara, Professor of Organization and Management, Aalto University School of Business, Finland
