Case studies from the <IR> Business Network’s Integrated Thinking & Strategy Group

The Integrated Thinking and Strategy Group (a special interest group of the <IR> Business Network) brings together some of the world’s most innovative companies so that they can collaborate, learn from each other, challenge each other’s thinking and share leading practices between themselves and those who follow them.

Integrated thinking is used by businesses to improve decision-making, accountability and communication. It is therefore essential to the development of strategy and provides a valuable connection to the board.

Participants of the group are sharing their experiences through a series of case studies that explore:

• What led the organization to embed integrated thinking
• How they used integrated thinking to shape their strategy
• How integrated thinking has helped them deploy their strategy
• What the benefits have been.

The first case study focuses on the integrated thinking of international bank, ABN AMRO.
