The Strategy Canvas:
• Shows the strategic profile of an industry by depicting very clearly the
factors that affect competition among industry players, as well as those
that might in the future.
• Shows the strategic profile of current and potential competitors,
identifying which factors they invest in strategically.
• Draws the company’s strategic profile, or value curve, showing how it
invests in the factors of competition and how it might invest in them in
the future.
• The horizontal axis lists factors of competition for the industry.
• The vertical axis indicates the degree to which industry players and the
providers of alternative services invest in the competitive factors.
