About the Book: The Business Model Innovation Factory
Business models don’t last as long as they used to. Historically executives have managed a single business model over their entire careers. Today companies must be capable of designing, prototyping, and experimenting with new business models. Executives will have to launch two to three new business models over their careers. They are not prepared, and corporate innovation efforts focus only on improving performance of existing business models.
This book provides all executives with the tools and survival skills to create a pipeline of new business models in the face of disruptive markets and competition. It will provide an actionable roadmap for executives and workers at all levels to avoid being “netflixed” by doing R&D for new business models.
