Walker v Boyle: The exclusion clause will only be effective if the party seeking to rely on it can prove the clause was reasonable (MA1967 s(2), UCTA 1977). Inntrepreneur Pub Co v East Crown: `Entire Agreement' clauses fall within the scope of s.3 as far as liability for misrepresentation is concerned (i.e., such term has no effect except in so far it satisfies the reasonableness as stated in section 11(1) of the UCTA 1997).
Tags: misrepresentation, case law Below are a few relevant principles and leading cases regarding the remedies for misrepresentation: Competitor analysis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - en.wikipedia.org (HTTP) Competitor analysis is an essential component of corporate strategy.[2] It is argued that most firms do not conduct this type of analysis systematically enough. Instead, many enterprises operate on what is called “informal impressions, conjectures, and intuition gained through the tidbits of information about competitors every manager continually receives.”
As a result, traditional environmental scanning places many firms at risk of dangerous competitive blindspots due to a lack of robust competitor analysis.[3] Competitor array[edit] One common and useful technique is constructing a competitor array. The steps include: This can best be displayed on a two dimensional matrix - competitors along the top and key success factors down the side.
An example of a competitor array follows:[4] Two additional columns can be added. Competitor profiling[edit] The strategic rationale of competitor profiling is powerfully simple.

Benchmarking requires the use of specific valuation methods. With evaluation is meant the evaluation the level of achieving the target for a particular evaluation item. There are general "methods" respectively approaches as well as IT-supported "software tools" that enable an effective and efficient work. The following is a list of notable methods and benchmarking software tools. Benchmarking methods[edit] There are many benchmarking methods each having different analytical focus. The methods are mostly known and will be shown in the following summary.[1] Benchmarking software tools[edit] There are a number software tools that allow the support of different kinds of benchmarking types.

The white paper, Outcome-Driven Innovation, is a must read. It reveals the flaws in traditional innovation theory and explains how they are addressed with Strategyn’s thinking and our innovation process, Outcome-Driven Innovation. The other white papers, which offer Strategyn’s perspective on strategy, innovation management and innovation practices such as voice-of-the-customer (VOC) and QFD, are equally compelling. This white paper by innovation expert Tony Ulwick helps readers achieve two important objectives: it underscores why innovation has historically been a misunderstood, fragmented and ineffective process, and it explains in detail the innovation theory, discoveries and concepts that comprise the Outcome-Driven Innovation process.

Stratégie d'entreprise pratique - www.slideshare.net (HTTP) Start-up Strategy: To Change the Game, Change the Economics of How It’s Played. (photo: laffy4k) Several weeks ago, I found myself in the passenger seat of a car going nowhere fast. My friend, Peter Sims, who had earlier introduced me to the Stanford D.School, was leading the charge into the unknown, hurtling us (hopefully) towards dinner in exotic Burlingame, where people from SF and Palo Alto compromise to break bread. The “us” included Alan M.
Webber, whom I’d never met. He sat behind me, and — as getting lost tends to promote — we ended up talking about nothing in particular and everything in general: publishing, the game of business, Mr. T, you name it. Alan was co-founder of Fast Company magazine and former editorial director of the Harvard Business Review. More specifically related to this post, Alan developed a very interesting habit more than 20 years ago, when he began to carry a supply of 3 x 5 index cards wherever life took him.
Here is Rule #24, one of my favorites. RULE #24 – If you want to change the game, change the economics of how the game is played. ScenarioThinking. A Manifesto for Agile Strategy: oxymoron or innovation? « Made by Many. You can talk and think about stuff for ages and ages before doing something or other. Why not just do something straight away and learn from that? London was basking in unexpected sunshine and Tim Malbon (aka @malbonster) and I were wolfing down some fish and chips in Soho.
His off-the-cuff comment stopped me cold – chip halfway to mouth – and in one way or another I have been thinking about it ever since (it was 6 months ago!). ‘Doing over planning‘ might be the simplest way to summarise the Agile philosophy that Made by Many so fervently pursues (a great non-tech articulation of the Agile approach to web apps is Getting Real by 37 Signals). I was further prompted by Stuart's excellent recent post exploring some of the differences between "Agile" the philosophy and "agile" the adjective, in which he concludes: Two of the most interesting questions for me is how is Agile going to scale beyond a team level?
My short answer to this, is most definitely. 1. 2. 3. 4. So whaddya think? Remapping your strategic mind-set - McKinsey Quarterly - Strategy - Globalization. Senior executives need better mental maps to navigate our unevenly globalized world. Although a wide variety of metrics show that just 10 to 25 percent of economic activity is truly global, executives disproportionately embrace visions of unbounded opportunities in a borderless world, where distances and differences no longer matter. In several articles and books, I’ve tried to describe the true nature of globalization and suggest ways for executives to structure their thinking about distance and difference effects (see sidebar, “Understanding the world and measuring distance”). Here, I want to focus on the potential for a special kind of map—one I call a “rooted map”—to help leaders enhance their intuition about the opportunities and threats inherent in our semiglobalized world. Rooted maps correct a misperception reinforced by conventional ones: that the world looks the same regardless of the viewer’s vantage point or purpose.
Using rooted maps to understand opportunities Exhibit 1.
