Abstract

Strategic management is a coordinated, comprehensive and continuous program that connects the organization's top talents with the environment and it means achieving the goals of the organization within the framework of proper management. The purpose of this article is a critique of the translation of the book Theory Strategic Management by Gareth R. Jones and Charles W. L. Hill. The critical philosophical exploration method was used for critique and the approach of the book was the translation of the original book. The tool of critique of the worksheet was the critique of the textbooks and academic books of the Council for the Review of Humanities Texts and Books. The results of the qualitative content analysis showed that the criticisms of the book are in formal, structural, and content areas, the most important of which include: some words are translated from the original language (English), while there was a Persian equivalent for these words that was not used. In the process of its plan and strategy, this book has referred to the formulation, execution, and implementation. However, it does not explicitly mention the important and main process of monitoring and evaluating the strategy and only discusses the control of strategies sporadically in some chapters. This article tries to add to the richness of the book's topics by emphasizing the formal and content dimensions of the work and relying on research citations.
