Threat of new entrants: This force looks at the ease with which new firms can enter the industry and compete with existing firms.The “Five Forces” model is a framework for analyzing the competitive forces in an industry, developed by Michael Porter. Porter has published numerous articles and books on business strategy and competitiveness, and his work has been widely cited and influential in the business world. He has also developed a number of other influential concepts and frameworks in the field of business strategy, including the value chain, the generic strategies, and the diamond model of national advantage. As you might know, Porter is best known for his work on the “Five Forces” model of competitive analysis, which is a framework for analyzing the forces that shape the competitive landscape in a given industry. At that time was considered the best book on strategy, and had the most used framework. It’s been three decades since professor Ranjay Gulati introduced me in the MBA class of Strategy to the “Five forces” by Michael Porter. How AI Changes the strategic game for the corporations The other question is “How do you keep this talent”? Red Sox hired general managers who follow Beane’s method, and then the new general manager of the Red Sox, just twenty-eight years old, hired James, the data scientist, as a consultant. So why do they blunder on such a large scale? They have every incentive to evaluate talent correctly. How did Beane get this done? Defying the current wisdom, and bringing key actionable insights to baseball recruiting, aided by Data science.īut maybe the bigger question of the book is: Why do professional baseball executives make so many colossal mistakes? They are paid super well, and they are THE specialists.
In 2002, they ranked twelfth in payroll again, and first in wins.In 2000, the Athletics ranked twelfth in payroll and second in wins, a feat that they duplicated in 2001.in 1999, the Athletics ranked eleventh (out of fourteen teams) in the American League in payroll and fifth in wins.Since 1999, when Beane took over, the Athletics have compiled an amazing record: Lewis’s book is about the extraordinary success of Beane, who has produced a terrific baseball team despite one of the lower payrolls in baseball. “ The evaluation of young baseball players had been taken out of the hands of old baseball men and placed in the hands of people who had what Billy valued most (and what Billy didn’t have), a degree in something other than baseball.” What can be more American and more appealing?īut the real reason I love this book is the way it demonstrates how AI drives a strategy change in an industry dominated by the “in the box” thinkers. It has a trifecta amongst all books: Baseball, Brad Pitt, and a story of the underdog. Moneyball is my favorite book on the application of AI.
