A New Capstone for Decision Making: New Strategic Management, Political Economy and Leadership

by Juan Pablo Stegmann, Ph.D.

A New Capstone for Decision Making, Volume 1 reimagines decision-making by unifying strategic management, political economy, and leadership. Based on the metrics of McKinsey’s economic value creation and the mathematical modeling of industrial economics, it presents a practical framework for building critical and interdisciplinary thinking, key competencies of successful decision makers. It shows the recommended strategies (marketing, operations, human resources, organizations, international, etc.), and links them to ensure consistency. It incorporates Edvinsson’s intellectual capital model (human, social, renewal, and process capital), which is crucial for the knowledge economy. It promotes experiential learning and case analyses of the 120 largest US companies.

TESTIMONIALS

“Clear, bracing, and eminently usable, A New Capstone orders disciplined thinking to the common good. It fuses strategy and moral imagination into tools leaders apply—forming judgment, fortifying courage, and directing institutions toward truth, service, value.” – Dr. Sebastian Mahfood, OP, co-author with Phillip Mahfood of Homework: How to Hire, Manage, and Monitor Employees who Work at Home 

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

When Dr. Juan Pablo Stegmann turned 40, he decided to dedicate his life to deepen the understanding of the impact of spirituality in our lives, especially in the lives of vulnerable and suffering people. This required ample study and research to provide solid interdisciplinary foundations: he completed three doctoral dissertations, three master’s degrees, and three postgraduate programs in economics, management, finance, philosophy/ethics, international business administration, engineering, and spirituality, obtained in the United States, Europe and Latin America. He is the author of several books and articles published in the United States and abroad. He teaches a wide range of graduate and undergraduate courses, receiving important academic honors. Previous to this he held senior positions in most areas of the organization in leading multinational companies and worked with prestigious global consulting firms. He has been involved in various community service and volunteer activities.
