Publisher's Summary
In this perennial best seller, embraced by organizations and industries worldwide, globally preeminent management thinkers W. 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. Based on a study of 150 strategic moves (spanning more than 100 years across 30 industries), the authors argue that lasting success comes not from battling competitors but from creating "blue oceans" - untapped new market spaces ripe for growth.
Blue Ocean Strategy presents a systematic approach to making the competition irrelevant and outlines principles and tools any organization can use to create and capture their own blue oceans. This expanded edition includes: a new preface by the authors: "Help! My Ocean Is Turning Red"; updates on all cases and examples in the book; and two new chapters and an expanded third one - "Alignment, Renewal, and Red Ocean Traps" - that address some of the most pressing questions listeners and readers have asked over the years.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Profoundly Insightful
Identifies and explains in articulated detail, what separates the most successful business innovators, from businesses that also innovated but failed. Brilliant, powerful work. Several years old now, but still relevant. Considered to be required reading for any entrepreneur or business professional. Provides superior analytical framework for marketing. You simply have to read it, because your competition aready has!

an excellent book with counterintuitive insights
I really love this book because it turned my assumptions on their head regarding many of the conventional wisdoms in marketing for most companies.
it's ironic that most industry experts even in Fortune 500 would probably be against most of the strategies discussed in this book.
that said it just goes to show that there is a great deal of dogma out there and that if something is contradictory or seemingly contradicted yet probably just means we don't have the understanding we think we do about such things.

Not enough substance to support a book
A good idea that could be explained in a paragraph or two but got stretched into an entire book. Also written by an academic rather than a business practitioner so overly general and liking any actionable information.

Profound insights for any business environment
When I was studying for my master degree, I had a strategy related course where the professor there recommended this book while stating that it has profound insights and examples related to any given business with outstanding frameworks for success. That was a decade ago, and I only now had the time to read it, and boy, my strategy professor was absolutely right! I recommend this books to anyone that wants to broaden their understanding in how things should be done properly in any business environment.
