From emerging technologies to changes in consumer tastes,
tremendous opportunities and threats often begin as weak signals
from the periphery How good is your organisation at sensing,
interpreting, and acting on these signals? George S. Day and Paul
J. H. Schoemaker call this capability peripheral vision—and their
research shows that less than 20 percent of firms have developed it
in sufficient capacity to remain competitive. In this book, they
reveal a systematic process for developing peripheral vision and
offer practical tools and strategies for building “vigilant
organisations” that are constantly attuned to changes in the
environment. Through detailed case studies ranging from LED
lighting to low-carb foods to children’s dolls, the authors show
how vigilant organisations win by: scoping widely and asking the
right questions; scanning actively in the right places;
interpreting what signals mean; probing carefully for more
information; and acting wisely on signals before competitors do.
This book will help your organisation see farther to seize the
opportunities and avoid the risks that come from the periphery.
