risk taking now?And all that (2 of 100 12
of 500) was in relatively placid times.
21CEOs appointed after 1985 are 3X more likely to
be fired than CEOs appointed before 1985Warren
Bennis, MIT Sloan Management Review
22Good management was the most powerful reason
leading firms failed to stay atop their
industries. Precisely because these firms
listened to their customers, invested
aggressively in technologies that would provide
their customers more and better products of the
sort they wanted, and because they carefully
studied market trends and systematically
allocated investment capital to innovations that
promised the best returns, they lost their
positions of leadership.Clayton Christensen,
The Innovators Dilemma
23A pattern emphasized in the case studies in this
book is the degree to which powerful competitors
not only resist innovative threats, but actually
resist all efforts to understand them, preferring
to further their positions in older products.
This results in a surge of productivity and
performance that may take the old technology to
unheard of heights. But in most cases this is a
sign of impending death.Jim Utterback,
Mastering the Dynamics of Innovation
24The 1990s was a decade of multiple
revolutionspolitical, economic,
technologicalthat changed so thoroughly the way
we live that the past no longer seems a good
guide to the future (in fact the past seems
precisely the wrong guide). So it is in the world
of military affairs. The RMA is our opportunity
to use the new information technology to change
the very nature of the militaryin a way that
could reinvigorate American political, diplomatic
and economic leadership in the world for decades
to come. Bill Owens, Lifting the Fog of War
25ForgetgtLearnThe problem is never how to get
new, innovative thoughts into your mind, but how
to get the old ones out.Dee Hock
26Japans Science Gap Rice farming culture
Uniqueness suppressed. Govt control of R D.
Promotion based on seniority. Consensus vs.
debate. (U.S. friends can be mortal enemies.)
Bias for C.I. vs. bold leaps. Lack of

is job insecurity rather than security to make
people compete more.Hideki Shirakawa, Nobel

30Active mutators in placid times tend to die off.
They are selected against. Reluctant mutators in
quickly changing times are also selected
against.Carl Sagan Ann Druyan, Shadows of
Forgotten Ancestors
31Chivalry is dead. The new code of conduct is an
active strategy of disrupting the status quo to
create an unsustainable series of competitive
advantages. This is not an age of defensive
castles, moats and armor. It is rather an age of
cunning, speed and surprise. It may be hard for
some to hang up the chain mail of sustainable
advantage after so many battles. But
hypercompetition, a state in which sustainable
advantages are no longer possible, is now the
only level of competition.Rich DAveni,
Hypercompetition Managing the Dynamics of
Strategic Maneuvering
32 Acquisitions are about buying market share. Our
challenge is to create markets. There is a big
difference. Peter Job, CEO, Reuters
33When asked to name just one big merger that had
lived up to expectations, Leon Cooperman, former
cochairman of Goldman Sachs Investment Policy
Committee, answered Im sure there are success
stories out there, but at this moment I draw a
blank.Mark Sirower, The Synergy Trap
34Lessons from the Bees!Since merger mania is
now the rage, what lessons can the bees teach us?
A simple one Merging is not in nature.
Natures process is the exact opposite one of
growth, fragmentation and dispersal. There is no
megalomania, no merging for mergings sake. The
point is that unlike corporations, which just get
bigger, bee colonies know when the time has come
to split up into smaller colonies which can grow
value faster. What the bees are telling us is
that the corporate world has got it all
wrong.David Lascelles, Co-director of The
Centre for the Study of Financial Innovation UK
35Terror cells are superb, malevolent examples of
what Information Age organizations can be. So how
do you kill them? Soldiers used to idolize
Napoleon or Patton. Network-centric warriors
admire WalMart for using information
superiority to crush rivals. The Navys John
Arquilla calls for small, fast,
information-enabled units. Americas Secret

built to exploit the Internet. Their business

58Supply Chain 2000When Joe Employee at
Company X launches his browser, hes taken to
Company Xs personalized home page. He can
interact with the entire scope of Company Xs
world customers, other employees, distributors,
suppliers, manufacturers, consultants. The
browser that is, the portal resembles a My
Yahoo for Company X and hooks into every network
associated with Company X. The real trick is that
Joe Employee, business partners and customers
dont have to be in the office. They can log on

59The Real New EconomyImagine a chess game in
which, after every half dozen moves, the
arrangement of the pieces on the board stays the
same but the capabilities of the pieces randomly
change. Knights now move like bishops, bishops
like rooks Technology does that. It rubs out
boundaries that separate industries. Suddenly new
competitors with new capabilities will come at
you from new directions. Lowly truckers in brown
vans become geeky logistics experts. Business

72Suppose, just suppose, that the Web is a new
world were just beginning to inhabit. Were like
the earlier European settlers in the United
States, living on the edge of the forest. We
dont know whats there and we dont know exactly
what we need to do to find out Do we pack
mountain climbing gear, desert wear, canoes, or
all three? Of course while the settlers may not
have known what the geography of the new world
was going to be, they at least knew that there
was a geography. The Web, on the other hand, has
no geography, no landscape. It has no distance.
It has nothing natural in it. It has few rules of
behavior and fewer lines of authority. Common
sense doesnt hold here, and uncommon sense
hasnt yet emerged. David Weinberger, Small

136The fundamental unit of the new economy is not
the corporation, but the individual. Tasks arent
assigned and controlled through a stable chain of
command but are carried out autonomously by
independent contractors - e-lancers - who join
together in fluid and temporary networks to sell
goods and services. When the job is done, the
network dissolves and its members become
independent again, circulating through the
economy, seeking the next assignment.

141You must realize that how you invest your human
capital matters as much as how you invest your
financial capital. Its rate of return determines
your future options. Take a job for what it
teaches you, not for what it pays. Instead of a
potential employer asking, Where do you see
yourself in 5 years? youll ask, If I invest my
mental assets with you for 5 years, how much will
they appreciate? How much will my portfolio of
career options grow? Stan Davis Christopher

hours to get to the Navys six aircraft
carriersbecause the Navy had failed years
earlier to procure the proper communications gear

of communications capability, the Navy was forced
to fly a daily cargo mission from the Persian

either cure the malady or turn it into something
else. Blood pressure considered treatably high
in the United States might be considered normal

185Practice variation is not caused by bad or
ignorant doctors. Rather, it is a natural
consequence of a system that systematically
tracks neither its processes nor its outcomes,
preferring to presume that good facilities, good
intentions and good training lead automatically
to good results. Providers remain more
comfortable with the habits of a guild, where
each craftsman trusts his fellows, than with the
demands of the information age.Michael
