Transforming Economy Requires a Different Approach
Market Equilibrium 1947-1990
Oversupply 1991-2007
Demand Contraction 2008-2009
Demand-driven 2010-2025
Global economy in midst of four-phase transformation from a supply-based economy to a demand-based economy
Companies that will win have a competitively advantaged, granular understanding of profitable demand…
…and proactively develop solutions and targeted innovations that anticipate customer need.
Supply-driven Economy Demand-driven Economy

If you have to ask your customer what they want, it is already too late…They are telling
your competitors as well.
Oversupply worsens as supply chains grow in efficiency Demand return spotty and uneven, slower growing and more volatile Entering hyper-competition: Flat demand and significant increase in lower-cost supply Organic growth will be much more difficult Productivity, pricing, profit pressures
