Blockbuster was two generations behind the innovation curve, and when Dish Network bought Blockbuster ostensibly as a storefront competitive tool in its battle with DirecTV, it was too little cavalry too late to justify the ongoing operating costs.

With the right introduction, these external experts can demonstrate best practices that can gain a competitive advantage.

Not every project is appropriate for the in-house agency, and a smart group should not overload themselves by taking on every project nor risk ruining their reputation by taking on projects poorly suited to their team, like trying to do marketing with a product design team. Central funding creates a competition for the “free” resources and creates a perverse value on the service–that is, $0.00. The first article discussed the pros and cons of different UX team structures.

Why would it be important to dig into events such as the introduction of the Model A by Henry Ford in 1927 or the failure of IBM to react to Microsoft’s entry into the PC market in the early 1980’s? Because of his efficient approach to mass production and mass distribution, he was able to create a factory system, build assembly lines and lower the price enough to create the first real world consumer market.

Choice 2: To overcome market forces and prevail over our competition! Is it the business leader’s job to respond to market forces and win market share from the competition? One of the themes I explore in my forthcoming debut novel, This is Rage , is the notion of motivation. This is a subject I hold dear, and one I focus on a great deal in the executive coaching workshop I co-lead with John Vercelli.

The billion dollar startup was once the stuff of myth but now they’re everywhere, backed by a bull market and founded on new, disruptive digital technologies and business models which make their speed of operation, rate of innovation and reach that much greater. You’ve heard their names and you’re already using their products and in many cases they are now the new market leaders, the companies everyone wants to be or to beat. Their idea solves an existing, mass market problem.

Amidst all these big tactical actions, it is completely unclear what the strategy is to remain a viable company as customers move, quickly and in droves, to mobile devices using competitive products. I predicted here in this blog the week Steve Ballmer announced the acquisition of Nokia in September, 2013 that it was “a $7.2B Because between 2011 and 2013 Nokia had already lost half its market share.

In 2013 the stock rose to $85 as it made the list #3. Similarly Express Scripts rose from $53 in 2012 to $62 in 2013 when it appeared on the list in position #2.

Christensen, the term ‘ disruptive innovation ’ refers to a new entrant into a market who eventually disrupts and outperforms the established players. The process begins with a new company addressing a gap in the market, where a segment of the population has traditionally been overlooked. Over time they build a foothold in the market and through a process of continuous improvement and innovation , break into the competitive market that they were previously not involved with.

All you had to pay attention to was perhaps a few competitors and partnerships, and your market was fairly stable. Now you have many products across multiple markets and numerous partners and when you make a decision your competitors are countering. Meanwhile, there may also be disruptors you cannot see or predict creating new types of competition. Inevitably, this plan would have been anchored by one or all of the markets of Brazil, Russia, China or India.

It’s almost impossible to imagine any vendor controlling that portion of the market today. But since that moment, Nokia’s mobile-phone market share kept plummeting. In 2013, the company was lucky enough to sell its handset business to Microsoft, because a year later it probably would’ve been worth nothing.

The other big PC manufacturer, HP, spun off its PC business so it could focus on non-PC growth markets. And, worse, the entire OEM market is collapsing.
