Why is it that some companies turn out to be more successful when
doing the opposite of what is prescribed in many of the current
books on management and strategy? Interestingly, many of the
companies depicted as very successful companies in the standard
literature end up not faring well over time - probably because they
somehow end up in a dangerous autopilot mode. What this suggests is
that the conventional literature cookbook isn't telling us the
whole story. Even if companies have temporarily developed from an
ugly duckling to a white swan, the popular recipes for success may
be clipping such companies' wings. Conversely, companies adhering
to disruptive business models are seen to be more agile and to
possess a higher degree of actionability. Such next generation
companies are labeled black swans. They thrive because they are
bold and embrace the great unknowns of tomorrow with open minds and
eyes. At the same time, they are able to take advantage of
incumbents' fears, risk-aversion and blindness to what's coming.
Beyond Strategy delves into the inner workings of such black swans
as Apple, Aravind, Emirates, Huawei, Natura, Ryanair and Tata and
addresses the rise and fall of Nokia. The authors provide explosive
evidence of black swan companies working against the norms to enter
unchartered waters, determined not to adhere to the best practice
of others, but rather to create a genuine next generation practice.
Next generation companies and their underlying philosophies are
here to stay - are you?
