This book introduces the innovative 7C Strategy Wheel framework, an extensive toolkit designed to transform how businesses select appropriate strategy approaches.

In today's rapidly evolving business environment characterised by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA), businesses face mounting pressures that demand more robust, agile, innovative, and adaptable strategic approaches. Despite acknowledging the importance of aligning strategy with specific strategic contexts, many continue to rely on a limited set of traditional tools that are better suited for stable environments. The 7C Strategy Wheel addresses key challenges in strategy selection by providing a comprehensive framework comprising 7 strategic postures, 28 approaches, and 59 methods. Built on a thorough integrative review of theoretical, empirical, and practitioner knowledge bases, it synthesises insights from disciplines such as strategic management, economics, sociology, and public policy. This interdisciplinary approach creates a common strategic language, reduces ambiguities, and fosters better understanding and alignment between boards, executives, and managers.

This framework serves as a powerful guide for strategic leaders, strategists, planners, and practitioners, enabling them to navigate the complex competitive strategy landscape with confidence.
