Markets which have been previously out-of-reach for companies other than monopolies or other protected firms, are increasingly being opened up to new entrants. Greater competitive pressure implies that more sophisticated business strategies must be formulated by all companies cooperating in emerging markets. This book focuses on strategy in emerging telecommunications markets in a liberalized Europe, particularly in the UK and Sweden. The book provides: * a literature review and applications of strategy concepts and key correlations * applications of a market establishment model and the strategic states model * a description of competition amongst telecom operators in the UK and Sweden * detailed case-studies of strategies of telecom operators in Europe * the identification of patterns and processes valid for emerging markets in general. Whilst the industry focus in the book is telecommunications, the framework and the models explored and developed provide guides to strategy formulation irrespective of the market under consideration. Strategy in Emerging Markets will make valuable reading for strategy researchers, students and for corporate strategists. It will be of particular interest to those wishing to plot recent developments in the telecommunications industry.
This book provides: * a broad description of the telecommunications industry * details of an in-depth study of the telecommunications group Ericsson * a description of how the strategic states model has worked for companies
Digital Business Strategy responds to the need for clarification of the increasing, but fragmented, knowledge of digital business strategy. It systematically presents topical knowledge by reviewing previous research and developing frameworks for the content of digital business strategy and its relationships with relevant factors. In addition, the book analyses issues encountered by individual companies when implementing digital business strategies. The volume identifies key categories of digital business strategy, in particular, strategy scope and direction, competitive advantage, and resource and capability reliance. It then explores relationships with antecedents such as digital experience, relationships with obstacles and enablers of strategy implementation, and relationships with operational and financial outcomes. The author demonstrates that strategy content and relationships differ among manufacturing companies, retailers, digital content providers, and digital platforms and also presents ways to cope with issues of implementation. In summary, the book provides readers who wish to know more about the growing field of digital business strategy with up-to-date and systematic knowledge. It will be of great value to students at an advanced level, researchers, and reflective practitioners in the fields of technology management and strategic management in particular.
