Abstract

One attempt to regain the ground that strategy has recently lost, which was described in the first article, has been the introduction of “business models” as the precursor to competitive positioning within an industry. Understanding a business model provides a shorthand description of how value is created - although the business model, by itself, does not determine how profitable it will be for any firm: for that we need to examine the complete strategy landscape.
