Institute Overview
The Science of Strategy Institute is an
international organization dedicated to popularizing classical front-line strategy.
Classical front-line strategy is the skill set that identifies and
pursues opportunities in the competitive environment. The term classical refers
to this system's origins within Sun Tzu's The Art of War and its
historical military application. Front-line refers to the outward focus of these
skills, which distinguishes them from strategic planning
and control systems.
Front-line strategy is not a method of
management planning (more
about that here), but our training makes a variety of strategic
management systems more effective. Its methods are used by individuals at
every level to make good
decisions in situations that cannot be planned. Its methods are used on the surface of organizations where
they make contact with the competitive world. The value of
classical front-line strategy is not organizational control, but
organization growth and survival. Classical front-line
strategy gives individuals the ability to see, communicate, and act
effectively in dealing with dynamic, unpredictable competitive situations.
Our Founder

The Institute was founded by
Gary Gagliardi, the world's
leading authority on Sun Tzu and the use of classical strategy in today's
world. An internationally known speaker, Gary has taught front-line
strategy to some of the largest organizations in the world. Gary's
award-winning books have been translated into languages
around the world. In the last four years, ten of
Gary's books on strategy have won award recognition in seven different
nonfiction categories. Read more about him at
