Problems for 19th century businesses were... Scarcity Limited Technology Adversarial Posture If still did this they would give poor service and hold too much inventory2What is the old paradigm of businesses Strong brands Large advertising budget Aggressive selling3What is the result of this old format?Uncertainty and inaccuracy in process = poor service and/or lots of inventory4What is the paradigm of new business? Win through capabilities and competencies Managing core processes better than competitors Sped along by commoditization of goods and industries How businesses have changed? -Accessibility of Info has changed -Competition has lowered prices- since 20th century We are in Information Age-Today (Information is power that is changing the way customers do business: Car buying example) Choose options then car made to exact specificationswould be better but cant do because laws prevent customers from being able to buy cars directly.
