How to Challenge Assumptions and Surface Hidden Advantages Using a Cross-Func...IntelCollab.com
Securing a sustainable competitive advantage is typically the stated aim of most organizations, yet why is it so difficult to achieve?
For many firms, enjoying an intermittent period of competitive advantage would be heaven; sustainable is out of the question. The most unique source of competitive advantage nearly always comes from within. It is almost a “Zen moment” when your leadership realizes just how much valuable insight resides within the various elements of the firm if only you could find a way of integrating it. Unique information, tailored to your competitive landscape and appropriate to your business model is lying undiscovered. So how do you find this valuable insight? This presentation outlines how a firm can organize its efforts around a cross-functional insight team and presents a case illustration of one organization which has successfully derived both intangible and tangible results from so doing.

Adani SEBI investigation revealed that the latter had sought information from five foreign jurisdictions concerning the holdings of the firm’s foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in relation to the alleged violations of the MPS Regulations. Nevertheless, the economic interest of the twelve FPIs based in tax haven jurisdictions still needs to be determined. The Adani Group firms classed these FPIs as public shareholders. According to Hindenburg, FPIs were used to get around regulatory standards.

of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

18. Abductive Reasoning
Abduction is a form of logical inference that goes
from observation to a hypothesis that accounts for
the reliable data (observation) and seeks to
explain relevant evidence. The American
philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
first introduced the term as "guessing".
Peirce said that to abduce a hypothetical
explanation A from an observed surprising
circumstance B is to surmise that A may be true
because then B would be a matter of course.
Thus, to abduce A from B involves determining
that A is sufficient (or nearly sufficient), but not
necessary, for B.

21. THE BLACK SWAN
The Impact of the
Highly Improbable
The human mind suffers from three ailments as it comes into
contact with history, called the triplet of opacity:
1.the illusion of understanding, or how everyone thinks they
know what is going on in a world that is more complicated (or
random) than they realize;
2.the retrospective distortion, or how we can assess matters
only after the fact, as if they were in a rearview mirror
(history seems clearer and more organized in history books
than in empirical reality); and,
3.the overvaluation of factual information and the handicap
of authoritative or learned people, particularly when they
create categories – or "Platonify."

23. THE STARFISH & THE SPIDER
The Unstoppable Power of Leaderless
Organizations
Although spiders and starfish may look alike, starfish have a
miraculous quality to them. Cut off the leg of a spider, and you have a
seven-legged creature on your hands; cut off its head and you have a
dead spider. But cut off the arm of a starfish and it will grow a new
one, and the severed arm can grow an entirely new body. Starfish can
achieve this feat because, unlike spiders, they are decentralized;
every major organ is replicated across each arm.
But starfish don’t just exist in the animal kingdom. Starfish
organizations are changing the rules of strategy and competition and
are organized on very different principles than we are used to seeing
in traditional organizations.
Spider organizations are centralized and built around org charts; on
the other hand, Starfish organizations tend to organize around a
shared worldview or ideology.
And the Internet has helped them flourish.

24. Competing head-to-head can be cutthroat
especially when markets are flat or growing
slowly.
Managers caught in this kind of competition almost
universally say they dislike it and wish they could find
a better alternative. They often know instinctively
that innovation is the only way they can break free
from the pack. But they simply don’t know where to
begin.

Ensuring against risk to the core business is critical to making
sure there is time for investments in new growth to start
paying off. Maintaining a positive status quo by protecting the
core is the chief role for managers in every business, with one
caveat: good businesses can often be the foremost enemy of
great businesses.
Cannibalization of a company’s current market share should
not exclude innovative ideas that might be foreign to the
corporate immune system.

Powered by
32. EFFICIENCY
The ruthless cutting away of unnecessary costs in the value
chain is essential for a new market innovation strategy to work.
Create or build up that which is not yet good enough and
diminish or destroy that which is unnecessary.
Most of the unnecessary elements in the incumbent value
chain have long-since outlived their usefulness or were never
very important to customers in the first place.
The Intelligence Collaborative
http://IntelCollab.com #IntelCollab
Powered by
33. CUSTOMERS
Companies become too dependent on their best customers’
input for signals about how they should innovate, but new
forms of competition usually present themselves at the current
consumption market.
The day your customers begin complaining about how
complicated or expensive or difficult your product is, you
should ask, “why was it good enough for them yesterday” and
who has offered an alternative?

34. OUTLOOK
Traditional market segmentation based on demographic,
geographic or sociographic data are fleeting at best and illusory
at worst and many decisions have been based on flawed
definitions of the fastest growing markets.
Defining the market by the “jobs” customers wish to
accomplish is more helpful in defining fast growing target
markets. Focus groups are often the worst mechanism of
market testing.

35. NOVELTY
Differentiation is mandatory for all organizations to master and
new market or “novel” solutions to customer problems are often
ecosystems of providers working together to produce soughtafter value.
Companies must build a business model designed to test
breakthroughs in the market more regularly but kill off those
that do not work early on, so support and development
resources can be allocated to those that do.
