Breakthrough: How Great Companies Set Outrageous Objectives and Achieve Them

Success is, unfortunately, not self-perpetuating. Once a company reaches the level of industry incumbent, and must not only defend its market share among established players in the industry, but also operate in a defensive mode to prevent insurgent competitors from gaining market share, it's time for a Breakthrough to the next success cycle. In Breakthrough, Bill Davidson illustrates how the incumbent must adopt a strategy in pursuit of an outrageous objective-a series of innovations that are impossible within the existing framework-that must be undertaken not only to stay on top, but, in some cases, to survive. Breakthrough allows a company to renew and reposition itself, and in some cases, even redefine the market in which it operates. Although Breakthrough strategies can be found anywhere in an industry structure, from entry-point start-up to market leader, Davidson's focus is primarily on mature companies undergoing radical transformation.
