Chan Kim and Renee Mauborgne challenge everything you thought you knew about the requirements for strategic success. Recognized as one of the most iconic and impactful strategy books ever written, BLUE OCEAN STRATEGY, now updated with fresh content from the authors, argues that cutthroat competition results in nothing but a bloody red ocean of rivals fighting over a shrinking profit pool.

Blue Ocean Strategy - A ripple effect
Blue Ocean strategy “Blue Ocean Strategy” by W. Chan Kim and Renee Mauborgne is definitely a good read for imminent strategists. What is Blue Ocean's strategy? – It is all about - a) Creating uncontested market space. b) Making competition irrelevant c) Creating and capturing new demand d) Breaking the value–cost trade-off e) Aligning the entire system in pursuit of differentiation and lost cost. It turns on the head the erstwhile principle that states high pricing and high cost only create value The four-legged principle of a Blue Ocean strategy is eye-opening: 1. Eliminate 2. Reduce 3. Raise 4. Create All the principles need to work together for the new path-breaking strategy to be implemented. The sequence of the Blue Ocean strategy revolves around the below four steps: 1. Buyer utility 2. Strategic pricing 3. Target costing 4. Adoption hurdles It is good to wrap your head around the contents, it will certainly give a ripple effect.

Ubiquitous
This book is an absolute must-have for anyone in a startup or really small or medium sized business. There is nothing that disturbs me more than people who struggle in business with their fingers in their ears swimming in a red ocean. In Canada we have a lot of monkey-see-monkey-do businesses that rely on continuous rounds of big government money and meandering from one tech bubbles to the next to survive and it drives me nuts. This book is the solution.
