Thread: EP reassurance?
Quote from (an advert for) a new book sponsored by Price Waterhouse:
(No ivory tower, no speeches, just straight talk.)

' Just some wisdom from STRAIGHT FROM THE CEO:
"Be careful about focusing on your industry's market leaders, particularly if they are losing market share. Your market intelligence needs to extend beyond the traditional boundaries of your industry and its current products. Your traditional competitors will often be the wrong place to look for signs of fundamental change."
---Eckhard Pfeiffer,
Compaq Computer Corporation '
(undated)

I haven't read the book, but clearly EP thinks 'Outside the Box', maybe literally ,and figuratively too!
