To nashbramhall: Good answer!
To Dinesh Divekar: Finally, we found the book. Thanks! I've read many, but never felt I have found THE answer.
To samaresh.das: Only the awareness has become important, and not just 'today'; the importance of strategy was 'always' there. It evolved in the last 50 years maybe. It has just changed the perspective, as any other models of the world. It used to be the 'cost supremacy', then 'growth supremacy', then 'differentiation', etc., but used to boil down to 'sustained comparative & competitive advantage'. Now, with globalization, no one direction can fit the classical theories. You fight one front on cost, one front on quality, one front on distribution channels, etc., depending on where your competitors 'attack' you. (Sorry for the high school summary :)). If you want the definition, use Wikipedia. If you need help with strategy, hire a consultant (or call Simhan; or me :) )...

Dear Samaresh, you do not need books to explain strategy and strategic management anymore. Strategy helps to create a game plan by differentiating and etching a value proposition in the minds of the producer and consumer. Some have mentioned taking a position on quality, cost, and delivery.
Implementation and Review in Strategic Management
The implementation, review, and steering on the strategy map are part of strategic management. This is the process that connects the dots and charts out a roadmap to implement the strategy.
Hope this is useful.

I am all for helping people. However, posting PowerPoint presentations when they can easily be accessed on the web is something from which I abstain. Further, Samaresh does not seem to have visited the site after raising the query as he has not responded to my questions.
Have a nice day.
