If you want to be a business owner or a corporate executive whose job involves business decisions, then you will certainly need to master three fundamental disciplines:
•Business Strategy
•Management and Leadership
•Marketing Strategy
There is no way around that. It is possible to be an entrepreneur and a CEO with an engineering background and without an MBA or a business degree; what is not possible is being either of those things without having a clue about:
•The industry lifecycle model and its four stages: Introduction, Growth, Maturity, and Decline
•Porter’s five forces model
•The bargaining power of buyers
•The bargaining power of clients
•The threat of new entrants
•The threat of substitute products
•Game theory
•The typical company lifecycle
•What a competitive advantage is
•How to choose the optimal competitive strategy: Cost leadership, Differentiation, or Niche
•The dangers of pursuing a hybrid strategy
•How to choose whether to grow organically or through M&A
•The difference between horizontal and vertical integration
•The advantages and dangers of outsourcing
•How to apply a SWOT analysis in practice
