About this Presentation
The impact of the Blue Ocean strategy: 'to fulfill a significant need of a big enough market in a way no significant competitor can' is a great contribution to moderns' views of management and organizational strategies. In a more recent book Blue Ocean Shift the authors (Kim and Mauborgne) present a process to lead companies to their Blue Oceans, together with cases and examples of its application. In this presentation, we will explore what is the Blue Ocean Shift process, its strong points and its shortcomings and how TOC is a great fit to close the gaps and reinforce this process. The whole concept behind Viable Visions will be revisited, starting from a few templates (formalised in S&Ts later on) we will merge the process with the Blue Ocean Shift to develop new decisive competitive edges (DCEs) and new ways to implement those faster and more effectively with TOC. We will conclude with an overall process of strategies and tactics to develop and implement new Viable Visions with the Blue Ocean Shift augmented with TOC in the S&T format. Video length: 50:13.
