This insight sheds light on the centre’s value-creation process, which includes core competence, sense-making, parenting roles, and strategic management styles as well as the organisational and implementational design for both divisional and multi-business corporations. Multiple survey interviews with the CEO and his staff as well as industry specialists and experts from multiple fields and policy incumbents,\u003c\/span\u003e a qustionnaire survey with the stake holding members, a bibliographical survey, and a document search were carried out with a view to deductive\/inductive inferences and hypothesis\/construct–creation\/verification purposes. The analysis here demonstrates, first, that Bowlby’s attachment theory, sense-making, and conviction narrative clarify the personality traits underpinning managerial stability; and, second, that Max Joseph’s trading asset logic can nicely combine with core competence theory as a binding logic of multi-business practices. It empirically verifies the dictum that excellent though daring strategy must be grounded in solid administrative and financial implementational realities. The book provides a framework for future organisational design including management control tools as it creates a new understanding of business and corporate strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2026-02-24\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789819530939\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-981-95-3094-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 445\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44478026743948,"sku":"9789819530939","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789819530939.jpg?v=1774145163","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789819530939","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
