About The Book

Business policy is relatively a new concept in the history of management literature. It monitors managerial behaviour in terms of decision-making throughout the organizational hierarchy. It specifies the manner in which a firm should deploy its resources, overcome competition, exploit opportunities and minimize threats. By providing a unified theme for all activities, it facilities management to optimize enterprise effectiveness.

In the present century, due to the unprecedented pace of S & T changes, business environment has become more hostile and uncertain than before. Consequently, organizations are finding it difficult to fulfill their mission. In such an environmental dilemma, the Darwinian maxim, the survival of the fittest will hold good too for the business organizations. Therefore, there is every reason to believe that not only survival but growth and development of business enterprise, too, is intimately linked with dynamism and pragmatism of its policies. This requires that the top brass of the organizations should be well-versed with this important tool of management.
