Feature Summary
Strategic Dynamics: Concepts and Cases Features:
A new framework for industry and competitive analysis that builds on Michael
Porter’s classical framework but extends it to encompass key forces
especially relevant in information technology-driven industries.
A new framework of strategic dynamics that focuses on situations characterized
by nonlinear strategic dynamics, which are particularly relevant for companies
operating in information technology-driven industries.
The systematic analysis of a great variety of cases and notes about information
technology-driven companies and industries in terms of three key themes: (1)
strategy and strategic dynamics; (2) strategy and action; and (3) industry
change and corporate transformation -- all of which provides a highly diverse
yet highly integrated learning experience for both instructors and students.
The novel descriptive approach (Chapter 1) of providing an overview of important
information technology-driven industries in terms of major developments: the
effect of the compounding confluence of forces on industry dynamics, and the
convergence/collision of major industry segments.
The novel analytical approach (Chapter 2) of providing three key themes
and related conceptual frameworks to examine the strategic dynamics associated
with the major developments in the information technology-driven industries
described in Chapter 1.
The organization of the rest of the book in parts describing industry segments
characterized by particular types of compounding confluences of forces and
convergence/collision dynamics, which provides a natural way for grouping
cases and notes together within each part, yet also provides a common thread
running across the different parts.
