The End of Business?
Source: Brian Solis author of The End of Business as Usual
Survival is not mandatory
Are we at a Strategic Inflection Point?
“The point in the life of a business [or an industry] when its fundamentals are about to change. The change can mean an opportunity to rise to new heights. But it may just as likely signal the beginning of the end.” - Andy Grove – Former CEO of Intel Corporation
Are we at a Strategic Inflection Point?
“Strategic inflection points can be caused by technological change but they are more than technological change. They can be caused by competitors but they are more than just competition. They are full-scale changes in the way business is conducted, so that simply adopting a new technology or fighting competition as you used to is no longer sufficient. They build up force so insidiously that you may have a hard time even putting your finger on what has changed, yet you know something has.”
Are we at a Strategic Inflection Point?
“[It’s that time] when something is changing in a big way, when something is different, yet when you are so busy trying to survive that the signals of change only become clear in retrospect.”

Training as a Competitive Edge In a world of unrelenting change, about the only sustainable advantage is learning. Competitors can copy your products, duplicate your technology, and replicate your processes, but as long as your organization is learning faster than theirs, you will always remain ahead.”

Why executives should care about Employee Engagement
Gallup studies proved that corporations with higher engagement levels generated: • 27% higher profits • 50% higher sales • 50% higher customer loyalty • 38% above average productivity “Employee Engagement is an outcome-based concept. It is the term which is used to describe the degree to which employees can be ascribed as aligned and committed to their organization such that they are at the most productive.”
-The International School of Human Capital Management
ROI = ROP
ROP = ROA x ROC x ROL

The collaboration curve replaces the experience curve
• “The organizations that will become the household names of this century will be renowned for sustained, large-scale, efficient innovation.
• The key to that capability is neither company loyalty nor free-agent autonomy but, rather, a strong collaborative community.” • HBR, July-August 2011
Nowadays, no company is too big to fail or too small to succeed.
Simply knowing your customer is one thing. But, understanding how they make decisions and participating in that process influences behavior while building meaningful relationships. Regardless of technology, the future of business isn’t created, it’s co-created. To succeed, it takes a culture of customer-centricity and the ability to recognize new opportunities and adapt based on what they present.
– Brian Solis
Every challenge is a frustrated opportunity
"Average organizations put their best people on problems," McGrath said. "Exceptional organizations put their best people on opportunities."
