The Success Trap All great companies have some kind of success formula. It could emanate from a unique set of strategic frames, resources, processes,relationships or values. But when the formula hardens,companies lose a vital ingredient for continued success
Is your company at risk? Symptoms of Active Inertia • Strategic frames become binders “We are a growth company” “We know our competitors well” “We are number one” • Resources harden into millstones “Our brand means the product” “We have it all” “Our technology is a fortress”
Processes lapse into routines “We have a ‘bible’ for critical processes” “We hire and promote people like us” “We make our decisions by consensus” • Relationships become shackles “We know our place in the value chain” “We do the important tasks in-house” • Values ossify dogmas “We are a family, not a company” “We have a campus, not a headquarter” “Our competitors are our enemies”
