Resist the urge to react too hastily to major change — or to use it as an excuse not to take action. Focus instead on making the fundamental strategic choices necessary to strengthen your business.
Hyperconnectivity is high on the corporate agenda.
The majority of executives believe that failure to
adapt to hyperconnectivity—the growing
interconnectedness of people, organisations and
machines that results from the Internet, mobile
technology and the Internet of Things—is the
biggest risk their organisation faces.
Most companies, governments and organizations are still woefully unprepared for what’s coming next in mobile. Sooner than you think, almost everyone on Earth will be connected
to everyone else. Everyday objects
are already being connected to form a vast Internet of Things. Our world has become an expanding ecosystem of people, devices and systems – soon to be turbocharged with near zero-latency 5G. If you think mobile has changed everything already, you haven’t seen anything yet.
Welsh Consultants publishes its Thought Leadership article- The essence of Leadership is summarised well in this- "Good leaders identify people’s competencies and articulate their strengths, but the best ones are always rediscovering and moving up the learning curve themselves especially in tough times." As the saying goes, “We cannot lead anyone farther than we have been ourselves.” My belief is that while leading your organisations through difficulties, too much change can knock people out of their equilibrium. One has to start with what they have and what works well – then build on it and create solutions that produce incremental innovations to generate major changes over time. COVID-19 has handed that opportunity to show real leadership. This paper explores this.

Diese Studie, die in diesem Jahr in die fünfte Runde geht, untersucht die Erwartungshaltungen von Chief Communications Officers (kurz: CCOs) in Nordamerika, Europa, Lateinamerika und im asiatisch-pazifischen Raum, wie sich ihre Aufgaben und Arbeitsbereiche durch die immer weitere digitalisierte und von Medien zunehmend fragmentierte Welt ändern.
Unsere Rising CCO Studie zeigt, dass CCOs zum einen immer öfter auch digitale und soziale Medien in ihrer Abteilung verantworten müssen, und zum anderen Digital und Social-Media-Experten einstellen müssen, um dem Aufkommen gewahr zu werden. Genauer gesagt hat Social Media den größten Einfluss auf die Arbeit der CCOs. So gaben 91 Prozent der CCOs an, dass sie in Social Media die beste Zukunft sehen, wenn es um wichtige Kommunikationsinstrumente geht.
Die Studie zeigt weiterhin auf, dass CCOs traditionelle und soziale Medien für verschiedene Zwecke nutzen und die Wirksamkeit durch die Integration beider Medienarten in unterschiedliche Kommunikationsaktivitäten erhöht wird. Hier sollten die CCOs die Gelegenheit nutzen, zu verstehen, wann was strategisch am besten genutzt wird.

Managing reputation for US technology companies in the UKBrunswick Group
Corporate reputations across most sectors have deteriorated in recent years, but the tech industry has proved almost immune to reputational damage. Recently, however, major concerns around data privacy, corporate tax and the use of online networks by terrorists have caused UK public and media sentiment to shift. These issues have also put the tech sector on a collision course with governments and regulators, both in the UK and across Europe.
Drawing on new opinion research from Brunswick Insight, this presentation examines why trust in tech companies is falling in the UK, and provides a basis for designing strategies to rebuild it. We also look at the practical implications of a damaged reputation as the sector faces up to new challenges and a more hostile environment.

IT infrastructure will play a vital role in enabling organizations to become
connected economy leaders. With an IT infrastructure designed for cognitive workloads, you can
act at the speed of thought. It accelerates technology breakthroughs through open architectures
that foster collaborative innovation. Finally, it works with your cloud platforms to extend the value
of your systems and data. Put it all together and instead of observing change unfold, you can seize
the opportunities created by the connected economy.
The business landscape is being transformed by a series of megatrends, of which digital technology is already proving to be the most pervasive and potentially disruptive.
Industries, businesses and business models are being radically changed as a consequence of all the technological developments sweeping the world. I am writing a series of papers that cover the implications of all of this for how boards go about doing their work. The first paper is a general overview of these developments.
It is advice that technology vendors today should take to heart.
Corporations everywhere in the world are now in the midst of a transformation with respect to information technology. This is not necessarily about a revolution in technology processing power, but rather a fundamental change in the
power of technology process – an internal shift in responsibility over IT decision-making within organizations away from its traditional center, the Chief Information Officer, to the Chief Marketing Officer and Chief Financial Office

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

The Fear of Disruption
Can Be More Damaging
than Actual Disruption
Resist the urge to react too hastily to major change — or to use it
as an excuse not to take action. Focus instead on making the
fundamental strategic choices necessary to strengthen your business.

can thus be worse for a company than the actual disrup-
tion itself.
Of course, complacency or inaction can be just as
problematic. Technological changes, and other external
competitive forces, affect many business realities. Proac-
tive measures are often needed. But they should be well
thought out and center around those advantages that
you already have and that you already control — your
own strategy and strengths — rather than representing
a rash overreaction to external forces largely outside
your influence. Instead of letting anxiety about disrup-
tion lead your strategy, concentrate on making the in-
vestments that can build an identity for your company
that is strong and resilient in the face of change.
Disruption’s Pace and Impact
To better understand the real pace and impact of dis-
ruption, our research group at Strategy& (the global
strategy consulting team at PwC) set out to measure
disruption in multiple industries over significant period
of time. Because there is no readily available metric for
disruption, we settled on a reasonable proxy: major
changes in relative market capitalization among a sec-
tor’s 10 leading companies. When the prevailing busi-
ness model of an industry is threatened — by innova-
tions from a player within the sector, by startups, or by
competitors invading from another industry — the in-
B
usiness leaders are always worried about disrup-
tion. Some high-tech rival might, after all, do
to their sector what smartphones did to the
photography industry, what e-commerce is doing to re-
tail, and what financial technology (fintech) is threaten-
ing to do to consumer banking. In PwC’s 2017 survey
of 1,379 chief executives around the world, 60 percent
said that technological advancements had significantly
changed or completely reshaped competition in their
sector in the last five years, and more than 75 percent
anticipated they would do so before 2022.
And yet, in a recent study tracking the real-world
impact of competitive upheaval, we found that the fear
of disruption is exaggerated. Although we have no crys-
tal ball to predict exactly how much disruption will take
place during the next five years, we have found that
companies facing disruption generally have longer to
respond than they expect, and an effective response is
available to them. When disruption does affect a com-
pany, it’s frequently because the enterprise was already
vulnerable in some fundamental way; moreover, many
incumbent companies accelerate their decline through
their efforts to forestall it. Panic-driven efforts to avoid
or combat disruption can easily lead to hasty, reactive,
short-term-oriented decisions that move a company in
many directions at once, distracting its management
and squandering its resources. The fear of disruption

wisdom, that the rate of disruption — the annual shift
in enterprise value — is not increasing. The average dis-
ruption level across these 39 industry segments showed
only a miniscule increase over the 10-year period from
2006 to 2015, from 2.2 percent for the first five years
(2006–10) to 2.3 percent for the second five years
(2011–15). The single outlier was the Internet software
and services industry, where disruption levels increased
by 3.1 percentage points after 2010. There were 21 other
sectors with increases in disruption, albeit much smaller
ones (none over 1.6 percentage points), while 17 had de-
celerating disruption (higher levels on average before
2010). This finding reinforces our belief that there is
time to prepare for disruption and that disruption will
not hit every single sector overnight. (For the five-year
churn calculations, we used two-year averages of share
[for example, 2006–07 versus 2009–10] to reduce the
impact of any one-year outliers. The 10-year churn cal-
culations are the sums of the two five-year churns for
that industry segment.)
Finally, the pace of disruption — the time it takes
to appear and have impact — is generally much slower
than the conventional wisdom may suggest, and thus
easier to deal with. For example, the pharmaceuticals
industry has been considerably affected by external
forces, including regulatory upheavals. But these events
have unfolded over the course of 10 years or more. In
the internet software and services sector, it took nearly
a decade after the invention of the Web browser in
1990 before the Google search engine made the Web
practical for e-commerce. The current disruption in
the retail industry, in which economic value is moving
to online players such as Amazon, has been dramatic,
to be sure. But even here, it has taken more than a de-
evitable result is a shift in enterprise value from one
group of companies (the incumbents) to another (typi-
cally the upstarts, or on occasion incumbent companies
that disrupt themselves). For example, when Apple dis-
rupted the recorded music industry in the mid-2000s, a
shift in enterprise value was visible — away from the
incumbent market leaders, such as the Sony, Warner,
and Universal music groups, and toward Apple (and
eventually to other tech entrants, such as Spotify).
We therefore measured total enterprise value (EV)
for the largest 10 companies worldwide in each of 39
key industrial sectors over a 10-year period ending in
2015, tracking the share of that total EV held by each
company. This allowed us to recognize when major
shifts in EV occurred, and thus to identify major cases
of disruption (see “Measuring Disruption,” next page).
When we tabulated the results, we found that most
industries have not been dramatically disrupted; the
turnover in sector dominance, when measured this way,
is relatively low. The industries undergoing the largest
EV shifts were Internet software and services, IT ser-
vices, and biotechnology. These three sectors are heavily
dependent on technological innovation and subject to
turbulent change. But even here, the changes in EV
share of the top 10 players averaged only 8 percent over
the full 10-year period. Significantly, several industries
widely seen as threatened by outside technological com-
petitors — such as aerospace and defense, diversified
telecommunications services, media, and specialty retail
— registered among the lowest levels of disruption
found in our study. There was technological change, to
be sure, and the industries faced pressure, but there was
no significant shift in the roster of leading companies.
Our research also showed, contrary to conventional

produce the necessary technologies at scale. The transi-
tion will also require new types of auto repair shops,
new fleet-management companies with new sources of
capital for financing them, new forms of auto insurance,
and new traffic and safety regulations. And then there’s
the installed base to consider: It could take 30 years or
more to replace the existing automobile population with
self-driving cars. As the Economist pointed out in a 2015
article titled “The Creed of Speed,” auto executives have
plenty of time left to create an advantaged position for
their company — if they start now.
Developing Strategy
What does this suggest for your strategy? As we noted at
the outset, you shouldn’t try to be faster than potential
upstart competitors; you should aim to be better. The
cade to reach a tipping point.
The automotive industry is at the start of just such
a period. Massive changes appear to be inevitable: con-
nected cars, autonomous vehicles, battery break-
throughs, and the like. But these changes will probably
take decades to be fully adopted. The vehicles them-
selves have been in development for years now, and their
potential impact has been analyzed extensively through
computer models. Many critical factors will slow down
their adoption. These include technical factors, such as
the difficulty of designing vehicles for a wide variety of
terrains and climate conditions. Incumbent automakers
have built up fundamental advantages in design, manu-
facturing, distribution, sales, and financing, making it
hard for new entrants to compete. All manufacturers,
old and new, will need time to ramp up so they can

threatening force to incumbent competitors such as
Honeywell — and its disruptive activity kicked into
high gear when, in 2014, Google acquired the company.
But Honeywell had great capabilities of its own.
The company is a consummate fast follower, skilled
at adapting technologies with flawless execution of ev-
ery aspect of design and operations. (Former CEO
Larry Bossidy is coauthor, with Ram Charan, of the
leading book on the subject, Execution [Crown Busi-
ness, 2002].) One of Honeywell’s particular strengths
was its embedded base of relationships with distribu-
tors, large-scale contractors, and other leaders in the
industrials, building, and HVAC industries. No matter
how many Nest thermostats consumers wanted to buy,
their electricians and HVAC professionals were more
familiar with Honeywell. This advantage gave Honey-
well time to address its weaknesses in software user in-
terface and product development, so that its products
could compete effectively against the Nest devices. This
story may not be over — and both competitors will
have to sort through the relative value of products, dis-
tribution, and the data and software that support next-
generation services.
By contrast, consider one typical example used to
bolster fear of disruption: the impact of ride-sharing
companies (such as Didi Chuxing, Lyft, Ola Cabs,
Sidecar, and Uber) on taxi companies in many cities.
Some taxi companies had only three advantages of their
own to draw on: drivers who knew how to navigate the
streets, a dispatching and hailing system already in place
(including the taxi lines at airports), and a high level of
government protection in many cities, where the num-
ber of taxi medallions was restricted. Global positioning
and smartphone app technologies have undermined the
first two advantages, and the third is under fire. In addi-
tion, one could ask: Were taxi drivers and phone dis-
patchers universally courteous? Were vehicles always
clean? Did the companies consistently deploy the latest
technology? The answers to all questions would have to
be “no.” This lack of real advantage has made the taxi
industry highly vulnerable to disruption for years —
and only now that they are threatened are many mu-
nicipal cab companies raising their game by introducing
impact of a sector-wide disruption on any particular
company depends on how well that company can main-
tain a fundamental advantage compared with others
within its sector. We’ve long observed that great capa-
bilities — those few things that allow you to be better
than your competition at what matters to your custom-
ers — typically outlast markets. Without them, you are
at the will of others to redefine your space; with them,
you have tremendous abilities to shape your own future.
Start with a thoughtful review of the sustained
advantages you have already built — your capabilities,
brand value, and relationships. Then double down on
your investments in your strengths. They will give
you the flexibility you need to survive and thrive amid
disruption.
Netflix has done exactly that in pivoting through
the rapidly changing, often-disrupted business environ-
ment of the recorded media and entertainment sector.
In the late 1990s, the company competed directly with
the Blockbuster retail chain through a mail-order distri-
bution service that explicitly acknowledged its patrons’
love of convenience and their irritation with à la carte
pricing and late fees (Netflix’s subscription model let
customers keep a DVD as long as they wanted). In
2007, when streaming video became viable, Netflix rap-
idly pivoted to offer that service. In 2013, it began creat-
ing its own shows, and it has pioneered the use of artifi-
cial intelligence and machine learning to discern
consumer interests. A distinctive core strength —the
ability to understand what its customers want and do,
using in-depth analytics and behavioral data captured
by the company — enabled Netflix’s growth.
Another example is Honeywell Systems, the indus-
try leader in the heating, ventilating, and air-condition-
ing (HVAC) sector, which pivoted to its strengths with
its successful new line of digital building climate control
devices. But the company could have been a victim of
disruption. It was a competitor, Nest Labs, that intro-
duced a digital thermostat in 2011 that was one of the
first devices to use machine learning. The device recog-
nizes inhabitants’ heating and cooling habits and ad-
justs its settings accordingly. Founded by two former
Apple engineers, Nest Labs was seen from the start as a

hailing apps and improving other amenities.
Had the taxi industry been more attentive to its
customers, it might not have been threatened at all. It
would have been more like the hotel industry. We are
not aware of any major hospitality company that has
been hurt by Airbnb’s success. Airbnb has actually
helped the rest of the hospitality sector by increasing
travel among all demographic groups. It has also prod-
ded some hotel chains, such as Marriott and Starwood,
to improve their own offerings, thus expanding their
business customer base. Indeed, when Marriott and
Starwood merged in 2016 to become the world’s largest
hotel chain, one of the most noted aspects of the deal
was the combination of their customer loyalty rewards
programs, bringing together the best features from both
sides to attract and retain customers.
Building on Your Strengths
If having a solid core of capabilities is so effective, why
are business leaders so ready to believe that agility, or
even no reaction at all, is a better response to disruption?
Often, it’s because of natural cognitive biases: People
tend to overestimate the power of a threat and underes-
timate the time they have to respond.
This apprehension leads some companies to a state
of strategic paralysis, holding cautiously to business as
usual and avoiding risk. Their lack of confidence ap-
pears to be linked to a lack of self-awareness; they don’t
appreciate their own strengths enough to double down
on them and make them viable. They are like the Pola-
roid Corporation, which was an early pioneer in digital
imaging dating back to the 1960s, but which did not
make the necessary investments to hold that lead in the
1990s, despite the fact that the company best represent-
ed “instant satisfaction” which was a core proposition of
the digital camera.
Other companies react to the perceived threat by
doing too much. They “let a thousand flowers bloom,”
placing bets on many new ventures, and launching dig-
ital ventures in new places (we call these pirate ships),
even when it’s not clear that they have the capabilities
needed to succeed in most of them. Unfortunately, be-
cause these moves are disassociated from the company’s
core strengths, they are also less likely to be effective.
They become distractions, exhausting the company’s
resources and taking time and effort away from more
productive strategies.
In both cases, the company leaders avoid the diffi-
cult work of developing a better strategy and imple-
menting the fundamental changes that are needed to
build competitive advantage. The result? They’ve grown
more vulnerable to disruption — and also to ordinary
competition. Meanwhile, a few competitors, some of
whom were beleaguered incumbents, have probably fig-
ured out ways to build on their own strengths, which
puts them in a position to dominate the sector.
When we talk about these issues with senior busi-
ness leaders, they recognize the logic. But they often say
that the external world is so volatile and the threat of
disruption so unpredictable they don’t have time to
change all the people, processes, and systems required
to build the differentiating capabilities they need. There
is a strong point of view that increasing agility is the best
way to compete directly with new entrants.
Those who hold this view can have two types of
agility in mind. Operational agility is the ability to mus-
ter a team on a project rapidly and organize around re-
sults, as “sprint and scrum” teams do regularly in Silicon
Valley and elsewhere. Operational agility is extremely
valuable, but in itself will likely not enable a company to
mobilize at the scale needed to affect its entire strategy.
The other type is strategic agility — e.g., the ability
to rapidly introduce new products and services and sus-
tain them to meet new market needs. Although strate-
gic agility may be beneficial, on its own, it is not an ad-
equate answer to the new business models that may
threaten you.
Ultimately, the best defense is with neither form of
agility, at least in itself. It is far better to create advantage
through a few distinctive, deeply ingrained capabilities
that allow you to deliver on your value proposition bet-
ter than anyone else. Although it may take years to fully
build them out, significant results will begin to appear
much more rapidly in most companies. Apple proved
that when it began developing its digital hub strategy in
the late 1990s, which was based on the idea that the
7. www.strategy-business.com

computer would be a central connecting point for all
sorts of other devices. By 2001, six years before the in-
troduction of the iPhone, Apple had already introduced
an MP3 music player, a digital video camera, and its
groundbreaking iTunes store. As for the risk, when you
make moves based on your existing strengths, you can
make them quickly enough, and incorporate enough
feedback, to course-correct as you go along.
The successful companies profiled in our book
Strategy That Works have faced down disruption this
way. Their distinctive capabilities, such as IKEA’s cost-
focused design, Amazon’s innovative supply chain, Da-
naher’s M&A prowess, or Starbucks’s innovative meth-
ods for recruiting and managing dedicated employees,
give them the flexibility they need to shape their future.
These insights about disruption should feel em-
powering. When you are threatened, slow down and
look at the data for your industry. You are likely to find
that the disruption isn’t moving as fast as you think it is.
That it isn’t hitting as much of the industry as you are
afraid it is. And that in your existing strengths are the
tools you need to thrive — either by tackling the threat,
as Honeywell did, by staying in front of it, as Netflix
did, or by building out your capabilities, as Marriott
did. You’ll discover that you have plenty of time to focus
on what matters most: a distinctive edge that even the
disruptors can’t take away from you. +
