When Change Outruns Strategy (Strategy Brief #15)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Tesla, BYD and Toyota are all looking at the future of mobility. Yet each is making a very different bet.
Why?
In a world of rapid technological change, the challenge is no longer spotting signals. The challenge is deciding which future deserves commitment.
In this episode, we explore one of the most important challenges in modern strategy:
What happens when the environment changes faster than an organisation's ability to move?
Using the automotive industry as a real-time strategic experiment, we examine why some organisations move with change while others struggle to keep pace. Along the way, we explore strategic agility, resource redeployment, and why the real challenge may not be seeing the future, but repositioning resources quickly enough to respond to it.
In this episode
- Why Tesla, BYD and Toyota are making different bets on the future
- Why commitment often precedes certainty
- The hidden relationship between success and strategic inertia
- Strategic sensitivity, leadership unity and resource fluidity
- Why capital-intensive industries face unique strategic challenges
- The difference between adaptation and invention
- Why some organisations become trapped by yesterday's commitments
