“It doesn't matter much where your company sits in its industry ecosyst...” — Gary Hamel Quote

“It doesn't matter much where your company sits in its industry ecosystem, nor how vertically or horizontally integrated it is - what matters is its relative 'share of customer value' in the final product or solution, and its cost of producing that value.”

“It's important to remember that innovators in business don't always get a platform.”

“All too often, legacy management practices reflexively perpetuate the past - by over-weighting the views of long-tenured executives, by valuing conformance more highly than creativity and by turning tired industry nostrums into sacred truths.”

“You really want a company full of missionaries, not mercenaries.”

“Depending on the level you're at in your company, the higher you go up in rank, usually the longer you can dance.”

“When a company is facing a problem, it always takes a stance and takes a decision, but at the same time it wants to make sure of what it can learn from it, what enhancements it can make.”
