| Summary | Annotation <p>Surprise is rarely a good thing in business. Unexpected developments range in their effects from inconvenient to disastrous. To avoid being blindsided, companies must develop a Competitive Early Warning system, or CEW, which combines strategic planning, competitive intelligence, and management action. Such systems let organizations manage risk more effectively and prevent ""industry dissonance"" -- when market realities outpace corporate strategies. <i>Early Warning</i> reveals how to:</p><p>* Change strategy to meet new realities</p><p>* Learn from the mistakes of others via the book’s eye-opening stories</p><p>* Avoid common tactics like benchmarking and using consultants, which may do more harm than good</p><p>* Tell executives what they need to know -- not what they want to hear</p><p>Each chapter ends with a Manager’s Checklist of key points, and the book includes numerous charts, tables, and tools. With strong opinions and wry humor, world-recognized expert Gilad reveals how to anticipate and react to early signs of trouble.</p> |
