Inhaltsangabe

Since Michael Porter's book Competitive Advantage introduced the value chain in 1985, it has shaped how businesses think about competitive advantage. But while the world has transformed, the model-and the way it's taught-has largely stood still. Today's organizations still struggle with silo thinking, fragmented decision-making, and a lack of integration across functions and partners. The result? Missed opportunities and weakened competitive performance in an increasingly interconnected global economy. Understanding the Dynamics of the Value Chain challenges that status quo. This book introduces a modern, updated conception of the value chain-one that reflects the realities of today's business environment. Drawing on decades of insight and grounded in the idea of "metanoia," or a fundamental shift in thinking, it equips readers to move beyond silos and manage value creation holistically. Designed for both professionals and students, this book provides the perspective and tools needed to understand how organizations truly create value-and how to leverage those dynamics for sustained competitive advantage.
