Industry Analisys
Semester : VII
A. Course Description
This course extends and integrates the foundational knowledge of competitive
strategy covered in the core strategy courses. It fosters an understanding of the dynamics
of competition and industry evolution as a critical part of developing an effective
competitive strategy. It emphasizes the ceative element in evaluating strategies and in
laying the groundwork for change. It encourages a multi-faced approach for addressing
complex business problems. Topics are covered in this class include complementaries
and strategic fit, rugged business landscapes, strategic commitment and industriy
transformation via healthy competition.
A critical aspect of the competitives of any firm is the degree of internal and
external alignment of the various components as well as environmental factors. In accord
with this principle, we view the strategist as an integrator, with the responsibility for
seeing that strategic choices are well aligned, that actions are consistent and that
appropriate tradeoffs are made when there are confliting objectives or needs. Tight and
consistent alignment across functions, products and regions does not happen by itself.
Indeed, it does not even appear to happen very often. Many of you have witnessed
poor alignment in your work experience prior to business school – instances in which
production marketing personnel worked at cross-purposes, operations managers cursed
product designers, sales people made promises that production could not keep, a
company’s product competed with another destructively. Such conflict often reflect a
strategy that is ill conceived, poorly commubicated or not embedded in company’s
organizational structure.
A key goal of this course is to help you become a better integrator. Toward
this end, the course offers three things. First, the cases are designed to give you practice
with integraton. Most of them focus on decisions courses introduces tools that enable
you to break a company into discrete parts, analyze the whose ramifications span
functional,.product and geographic boundaries. Second the pieces, see how they fit
together and envision how they might come together differently. The tools should
enhance the judgement you build up through practice (but never replace the judgement). Third,
the course offers a point of view on how strategists can best serve their roles as
integrators.
