The Death of Competition: Leadership and Strategy in the Age of Business Ecosystems Book

Advance Praise for The Death of Competition "The Death of Competition certainly captures the essence of the change [that] we're experiencing in the new internet ecosystem. Very prescient." —James L. Barksdale, president and CEO, Netscape "Moore catches the fundamental shift in business thinking—and behavior—today: the economy is not a mechanism, businesses are not machines. They are coevolving, unpredictable organisms within a constantly shifting business eco-system that no one controls.… Managers of companies both great and small must figure out how to coevolve in this changing environment—to compete with what the competition is becoming, not with what it is now." —Esther Dyson, president, Dyson-EDventure Holdings, Inc. "Unique, trustworthy counsel for leaders facing the new economy of empowered customers, global markets, and revolutionary technologies." —Robert E. Allen, CEO, AT&T. "The ecosystems approach and the biological analyses are very useful and very rich. [Moore's] personal style gives me a sense of sharing and presence. This is not a textbook. It is an experience." —Bo Ekman, chairman and CEO, SIFO Management Group AB "The business world moving toward the twenty-first century needs a new language to construct its new reality.… [Moore's] bold use of a biological metaphor … will help many businesspeople to start acting from a much deeper understanding of their own New World." —Arie P. DeGeus. (retired) head of Strategic Planning & Scenario Development, Royal Dutch Shell "Moore has reframed the leading-edge concepts of strategy and created an original, dynamic approach to thinking about enterprise, value creation, and the future. His images are powerful in both classroom and boardroom, inspiring students and policy makers alike to see new patterns and possibilities." —John Rosenblum.
