For the longest time, the corporate world has focused on product or process innovation as the primary driver of profitability.  But these gains, if materialized at all, are often incremental or short-lived.  Business model innovation, on the other hand, focuses on the real profit engine—the underlying logic for a company’s ability to create value and make money.  By making shifts that enhance the value proposition of a company in concert with its operating model, it is possible to create greater, lasting competitive advantage. 

This program will take you through a practical analysis for understanding and evolving your current business model, opening new possibilities for seizing new markets while closing out competitors.  Using examples from Amazon to Southwest, you will discover how market leaders have dominated their respective segments by using off-the-shelf products, and how to similarly capitalize on the drivers in your business.
