The Power of Unfair Advantage by John L Nesheim
Author John Nesheim begins with a clear model: outsource everything you are not good at, concentrate on those things that can be differentiated, and strive for a unique, consistent difference that cannot be copied. Integrating these maxims with other essential elements, he demonstrates, with dozens of case studies, how to orchestrate unfair advantage through marketing, sales, engineering and operations. Unfair advantage can take many forms. Pager maker RIM rocketed to the top of the mobile wireless email market with Blackberry by employing an unfair advantage that they alone possessed - pager technology and pager infrastructure. Alternately, an unfair advantage can come from a unique relationship with a strategic alliance partner, as when Flextronics pulled Handspring out of a life-threatening crisis. THE POWER OF UNFAIR ADVANTAGE is an essential handbook for every manager who is responsible for introducing a new product or service and every entrepreneur and would-be who plans to start a company.
John Nesheim is an engineer and veteran of Silicon Valley, he teaches entrepreneurship at Cornell University and other schools in Asia and Europe.
