Introduction
From time to time a business will have to face some form of disruption to one or more parts of its business model.
These disruptions are taking place across the value chain affecting production, distribution, work force planning and supply chain management. Covid-19, profoundly affects market sizing & segmentation. Even if all the other constrains were removed, would your market still be intact? And would your customers think about you in the same way they had previously? Any one of these disruptions would warrant a business model review, but all of them concurrently demand a complete rethink.
In our masterclass we look at companies that have already pivoted their business model. From Tesla retooling the Model 3 production line to produce ventilators, from Emirates shifting to cargo hauling, and Netflorist now delivering fresh fruit and veg. We unpack the thinking and tools that allowed these businesses to widen their gaze and narrow their focus.
