Winning Market Leadership:
Strategic Market Planning for Technology-Driven Businesses 
(Chinese language edition)

Winning Market Leadership is targeted at executives and managers in companies competing in dynamic, highly competitive industries, such as computers, telecommunications, software, biotechnology, semiconductors, instruments, pharmaceuticals and advanced materials. These individuals play key roles in developing strategic market plans for their businesses. 

The book provides a systematic and highly integrated process for evaluating market opportunities and for developing strategies to win market leadership in chosen opportunities. It focuses on the key issues and tough choices faced by executives in these very demanding technology-intensive markets. Most of the examples in the book are drawn from the experiences of high technology companies, such as Intel, Compaq, Hewlett-Packard, Glaxo-Welcome, and General Electric.

The book emerged from project-based executive programs developed for corporate clients such as IBM, Nortel Networks, National Semiconductor and General Electric. The process has been developed and tested with close to a thousand managers and executives in North America, Europe and Asia, who have brought strategic opportunities to these programs.
