What happened in each case? Why?


Compe((ve Strategies in Hypercompe((ve Condi(ons

•  Compe((ve advantage is temporary –  Rapid imita(on –  Not sustainable

•  Compe((ve advantage relates to –  Organisa(on’s ability to change –  Speed –  Flexibility –  Innova(on –  Disrup(on of market

Game Theory -‐ Prisoner’s Dilemma

Exhibit 5.6 Johnson, Scholes & Whi`ngton (2005) Exploring Corporate Strategy, 7th Edi(on, Pearson Educa(on

Compete aggressively? Or tolerate compe(tors and avoid harming each other?


Red Oceans – industry sectors that exist today, These are already contested and compe((ve

Blue Oceans – industry sectors that do not yet exist Unknown market space, opportuni(es ?

Examples?

Chan Kim, W., and Mauborgne, R. (2005). Blue Ocean Strategy: How to Create Uncontested Market Space and Make Compe33on Irrelevant, Harvard Business Press


Is this the full picture ?


Government / European Union rules and regula(ons can have a direct Influence on compe((on.

An(-‐compe((ve behaviour is not allowed.

WTO is also ac(ve in this area.


Compe((on or collabora(on or collusion ?

British Airways fined £58.5m for fuel price-fixing British Airways is to pay a reduced £58.5m fine for colluding with rival Virgin Atlantic on fuel surcharges, finally putting to bed an investigation that has lasted more than five years.


The Compe((on Commission takes ac(on against an3-‐compe33ve behaviour

Agreements between two or more independent market operators which restrict compe((on are prohibited by Ar3cle 101 of the European Treaty. The most flagrant example of illegal conduct infringing Ar(cle 101 is the crea(on of a cartel between compe(tors (which may involve price-‐fixing and/or market sharing).

Ar3cle 102 of the Treaty prohibits firms holding a dominant posi(on on a determined market to abuse that posi(on, for example by charging unfair prices, by limi(ng produc(on, or by refusing to innovate to the prejudice of consumers.

These policies really started in 1983 in the UK, implemented by Prime Minister Thatcher, Based on much earlier wri(ngs of Peter Drucker

Junior minister

Cabinet minister


Example:

Deregula(on of European airspace encouraged new entrant airlines

Ryanair (as a Low Cost Airline) in 1992

easyJet (as a LCA) in 1995

How did Bri(sh Airways respond?

Ignore the new entrants?

Tolerate them?

Retaliate against them?


hLp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJCuYNvrE8g


Bri(sh Airways gave Barbara Cassani (a senior manager at BA) £25 million to create a new LCA.

She created a new airline called GO in 1998

BA planned to retaliate against the new entrants and at the same (me learn about this new business.

BA sold GO in 2001 for £100 million.

easyJet bought GO in 2002 for £378 million

None of the players was damaged, the market for air travel in the UK grew by 40% a year.


Some sectors e.g. banks and financial are being heavily Re-‐regulated as a result of misconduct.
