of the market
12. Five reasons why good management will result in
bad outcomes:
• #1: Companies Depend on Customers and Investors for Resources
Expectations of customers and investors are driven by the past.
• #2: Small Markets Don’t Solve the Growth Needs of Large
Companies
Big companies need big profits.
• #3: Markets that Don’t Exist Can’t Be Analyzed
Big data drives big companies.
• #4: An Organization’s Capabilities Define Its Disabilities
People can change, but processes and cultures are based on
successes in the past.
• #5: Technology Supply May Not Equal Market Demand
Functionality and reliance may be inferior to ease of use and price.
