Two major trends to consider: the rise of the Corporate Consumer and the emergence of the Social Enterprise, which will create enormous opportunities for some and existential threats for others.

47. Where are you on the curve?
Where are you on the curve - ahead or behind, which is the essence of strategy.
Behind:
If you are behind the curve and chasing the market
then you have ceded a great deal of control and you
must have the ability to execute and be very agile in
execution. Your bets are defined. Your strategic
posture is reactive and defensive.
Ahead:
If you are ahead of the curve you are trying to drive
the market, which requires a very different agility there you require a set of controlled bets in execution
with the ability to constantly probe the frontier and
execute on success. Here you are reacting to yourself
and your direction instead of where others have been.
