How do you gain an edge in the digital world order?
“Another book for the ages from a master.... Particularly insightful is his emphasis on how the end-to-end individual consumer experience will separate winners from losers in our new digital age.” (Fred Hassan, chairman, Caret Group; former CEO, Schering-Plough and Pharmacia)
The old ways of creating competitive advantage for your business - such as building moats to ward off competitors - have become dangerous. Giants like Amazon and Alibaba are creating vast new market spaces through a deft combination of tools like machine learning and business savvy that reimagines customer experiences while generating immense shareholder value.
A handful of traditional companies, including Fidelity Investments, Walmart, and B2W, have adopted these new approaches to reinvigorate their businesses. Most, however, are stalled - and the clock is running out. In this lively, accessible guide, Ram Charan, best-selling author and adviser to some of the world’s top CEOs and boards, redefines competitive advantage for the digital-first era, offering a set of new rules to get ahead:
- Create an ecosystem with third-party partners to revolutionize and personalize the customer experience.
- Empower teams focused on a single task, building a “social engine” that drives constant innovation, fast execution, and customer satisfaction.
- Attract funders who understand the big picture: that beyond a certain scale, major upfront spending will turn into a cash-generation machine.
Filled with stories that peek behind the curtain of digital behemoths as well as traditional companies that have transformed their organizations, Rethinking Competitive Advantage offers concrete advice and methods to help you conceive of new market spaces and moneymaking models.
Competing against digital giants might seem daunting, if not impossible. The necessary computing power is within any company’s reach. By borrowing from these digital winners’ playbooks, traditional companies and upstarts alike can gain an upper hand. Whether you’re in the C-suite or brainstorming the next big idea from your garage, Rethinking Competitive Advantage is the ultimate guide to creating competitive advantage today.

Historia
We've all had experiences with two dramatically different types of leaders. The first type drain intelligence, energy, and capability from the people around them and always need to be the smartest people in the room. These are the idea killers, the energy sappers, the diminishers of talent and commitment. On the other side of the spectrum are leaders who use their intelligence to amplify the smarts and capabilities of the people around them.

Being a CEO at any of the world’s largest companies is among the most challenging roles in business. Billions, and even trillions, are at stake—and the fates of tens of thousands of employees often hang in the balance. Yet, even when “can’t miss” high-achievers win the top job, very few excel. For those who shoulder the burden of being the one on whom everyone counts, a manual for excellence is sorely needed. To identify the 21st century’s best CEOs, the authors of CEO Excellence started with a pool of over 2,400 public company CEOs.

While we often still treat AI as the domain of a specific skill, business function, or sector, we have entered a new era in which AI is challenging the very concept of the firm. AI-centric organizations exhibit a new operating architecture, redefining how they create, capture, share, and deliver value.

Historia
Speed has gotten a bad name in business, much of it deserved. When Facebook made "Move fast and break things" an informal company motto, it fueled a widely held belief that we can either make progress or take care of people, one or the other. That a certain amount of wreckage is the price we have to pay for inventing the future. Leadership experts Frances Frei and Anne Morriss argue that this belief is deeply flawed—and that it keeps you from building a great company.

In his newest and most transformative book, Trust and Inspire, he offers a simple yet bold solution: to shift from this “command and control” model to a leadership style of “trust and inspire.” People don’t want to be managed; they want to be led. Trust and Inspire is a new way of leading that starts with the belief that people are creative, collaborative, and full of potential.

Reseñas de la Crítica
“Rethinking Competitive Advantage is the book to redefine advantage for the digital generation. Charan lays out the new golden rules for an increasingly competitive world. His unfettered access to leaders of successful companies gives him insights that you won’t find anywhere else.” (Douglas L. Peterson, president and CEO, S&P Global)
“Winning the technological revolution isn’t about technology, as Rethinking Competitive Advantage demonstrates. Charan, grand master of strategy, has written the indispensable book on the radically new rules of the digital age.” (Geoff Colvin, best-selling author of Talent Is Overrated and senior editor at large, Fortune)
“The companies we have invested in have mostly pursued a culture of attracting exceptional people, producing efficiently, and lowering cost. Market forces have obliged us to become more adaptable, consumer focused, and innovation oriented. Charan’s book Rethinking Competitive Advantage fits like a glove in helping us adjust to this new world, so much so that we are distributing it to all our top executives.” (Jorge Paulo Lemann, co-founder, 3G Capital)

Solid Read
The author is trying to stay ahead of the change curve. His review and advice of business at the speed of light shows the critical need for all who need not only survival skills against giant data-driven competitors but also winning models for a smart competitive edge. It is just so difficult to stay in front of the velocity re the subject matter that I imagine another book forthcoming.
