World Class: Second edition

The global business arena is changing fast, and yesterday's 'strategic logic' is no longer relevant. During the 1990s, the pace and intensity of competition will make it impossible to create a sustainable competitive advantage in most industries. Companies will have to learn to survive and grow despite 'unsustainable advantages. Fast learning, continuous improvement, and companywide attention to customers will be the new strategic weapons.
