Winning the Right Game

How to Disrupt, Defend, and Deliver in a Changing World (Management on the Cutting Edge)

De: Ron Adner

Narrado por: Ron Adner

The basis of competition is changing. Rivalry is shifting from well-defined industries to broader ecosystems: automobiles to mobility platforms; banking to fintech; television broadcasting to video streaming. Your competitors are coming from new directions and pursuing different goals from those of your familiar rivals. In this world, succeeding with the old rules can mean losing the new game. Winning the Right Game introduces the concepts, tools, and frameworks necessary to confront the threat of ecosystem disruption and to develop the strategies that will let your organization play ecosystem offense.

To succeed in this world, you need to change your perspective on competition, growth, and leadership. Strategy expert Ron Adner offers a new way of thinking, illustrating breakthrough ideas with compelling cases. How did a strategy of ecosystem defense save Wayfair and Spotify from being crushed by Amazon and Apple? How did Oprah Winfrey redraw industry boundaries to transition from television host to multimedia mogul? How did a shift to an alignment mindset enable Microsoft's cloud-based revival? Each was rooted in a new approach to competitors, partners, and timing that you can apply to your own organization. For today's leaders the difference between success and failure is no longer simply winning, but rather being sure that you are winning the right game.

Love the MVE concept.

Ron delivered a compelling reframe to product strategy backed with case study evidence. I am excited to implement and get the domino’s in place.

The book that really explains ecosystems

I am not a big reader. I read “enough” to get a job done. The book Winning the Right Game I have now read twice and listened through twice. It really explains multiple dimensions to ecosystems well

BRILLIANT Boook!

Excellent research applied to ecosystem strategy! it's a really good book if you have a general understanding to ecosystems.

Great professor, better writer

I read this book while I watched the class and I was trilled by its content. It gives us a shared view and language to deal with complex problems

Clarity

Great book, slicing strategy differently!! Sometimes you need clarity to minimize look and maximize alignment to win
