Most strategic analysis focuses on what is large today. It measures market share, resources, or current dominance. These indicators describe the present well, but they often fail to explain how dominance actually emerges. The Compounding Edge examines what happens when the decisive variable is not current size but growth rate.

The P&L may not show the problem. The buyer will. This book ...
