It is an exceptional business paradigm. However, some business people have commented that it is very descriptive, as opposed to being prescriptive. I recently wrote an article which makes Blue Ocean Strategy very prescriptive, and it illustrates how to dominate and "monopolize" markets. If anyone wants to write me at mbolden@chathamchicago.com, I will send it to them for free! Sean,

I've found this analogy works well with clients that come from a business strategy perspective and they certainly get the need for better agility and simplicity. I agree Jeremy.

Innovation is key for the survival of businesses now that emerging markets are able to produce quality "me too" products. Sean,
