Buytendijk wrote five books related to strategy, organizational behavior and performance management. A common theme throughout these books is the application of stakeholder theory in business.
According to managementboek.nl, Buytendijk's first book on balanced scorecards briefly reached the #1 sales position for management books in the Netherlands; it remained in the top 100 for 890 days. His second book - on data warehouses - quickly followed. This was a more technology-oriented book. Both the first and second book were written in Dutch.
Buytendijk's third book, titled "Performance Leadership," was published by McGraw-Hill; it discussed the relationship between performance management and organizational behavior. The book has its roots in behavioral economics. "Dealing with Dilemmas", published by John Wiley & Sons, followed in 2010. It argues, following Henry Mintzberg, that strategy is full of dilemmas that require a different approach than traditional analysis, namely the opposite, synthesis. Part of the book on scenario planning and strategy maps is also available as a case study in the Harvard Business Review database. The fifth book, called "Socrates Reloaded," consists of a number of essays diving deeper into philosophical aspects of business and technology that started to emerge in "Dealing with Dilemmas".
