MI376: Why Do Great Companies Fail? The Innovator’s Dilemma w/ Shawn O’Malley
发布时间 2024-11-04 10:00:00 来源
摘要
In today’s episode, Shawn O’Malley (@shawn_OMalley_) discusses why great companies fail, as outlined by Clayton Christensen in his timeless book, The Innovator’s Dilemma, which was first published in 1997. The Economist actually named it one of the six most important business books ever written.
Christensen was an academic and business consultant who wrote a number of compelling books, but the Innovator’s Dilemma is by far his best-known work. Christensen worked at Harvard Business School for a decade before founding a consulting firm in 2000 and a venture capital firm focused on investing in Southeast Asia in 2005.
In this episode, you’ll learn how disruptive innovations shift the status quo, the difference between disruptive and sustaining innovations, why companies can seemingly do everything right and still lose out to new competition, how following logical incentives can actually lead management to disregard threats from disruptive technology, why disruptive technologies tend to emerge on the fringes of established customer demographics, and what companies can do to prepare themselves for the inevitable rise of disruptive technologies, plus so much more!
