Marketing Management: The Big Picture offers a complete overview of an integrated strategy-through-execution process. The framework allows students to understand strategic marketing as a system where changes in one aspect of the plan affect other aspects, and where strategic decisions have executional consequences. The interrelatedness of the text's 14 modules encourages unity of purpose that results in efficient decision making. Throughout the text, the authors provide a set of materials that will enable students to attack marketing problems by utilizing an integrated framework and associated tools designed to help them analyze, prioritize, and then solve these problems. The simplicity of the Big Picture Framework enables students to practice outside the classroom as well-- finding themselves evaluating marketing problems they encounter in their daily lives through the lens of the Big Picture framework. Properly applied, the framework allows students to reduce the uncertainty associated with marketing decisions, and increase their ability to generate a wider range of solutions to the specific problem. Perhaps more importantly, the framework enables the marketer to assess decisions on an ongoing basis, thereby engaging in a process of continuous evaluation and learning.

The Wiley Advantage

The Big Picture Framework: The purpose of this approach is to provide a set of materials for students to approach marketing problems by using an integrated framework and tools designed to help them analyze, prioritize, and solve.

Applications outside of the classroom: The core knowledge of the framework is absorbed quickly, and students learning is enhanced because they are afforded a wide variety of opportunities to see the Big Picture in action, and apply their growing knowledge and skills.

Real-World Case Studies: the cases in the text have been informed by experience implementing the Big Picture in real organizations.
