This document outlines 10 concepts for dealing with competition. It discusses understanding industry forces and structure, identifying and evaluating competitors, analyzing different types of market positions and strategies such as market leaders, challengers, followers and nichers. It also covers developing defense strategies and balancing a focus on customers and competition. The key is understanding the broader industry and competitors while exploiting weaknesses and emerging customer needs.
Every company desiring to stay competitive must design broad competitive marketing strategies by which it can gain a sustainable competitive advantage. But what broad marketing strategies might the company use? Which ones are best for a particular company or for the company’s different divisions and products? No one strategy is best for all companies. Each company must determine what makes the most sense given its position in the industry and its objectives, opportunities, and resources. Even within a company, different strategies may be required for different businesses or products. Johnson & Johnson uses one marketing strategy for its leading brands in stable consumer markets, such as BAND-AID, Tylenol, Listerine, or J&J’s baby products, and a different marketing strategy for its high-tech health-care businesses and products, such as Monocryl surgical sutures or NeuFlex finger joint implants. So you understand that no one best strategy truly exist for all firms. But which strategy is best for which company? This chapter attempts an appropriate respond to the question.
The PPT presents at length the idea of dealing with competition. Includes Porter's 5 Force model. Segment rivalry. Various examples and relevant cases are included.

It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
