New Approaches to New Approaches to Strategy Fo Strategy Formulationrmulation • The currently dominant view of strategy is the
- resource based theory . Traditional strategy models, such as Michael Porter's five forces model, focus on the company's external competitive environment .Most of them do not attempt to look inside the company . In contrast, the resource-based perspective highlights the need for a fit between the external market context in which a company operates and its internal capabilities . According to t
his view, a company's competitive advantage derive s from its ability to assemble and exploit an appropri
ate combination of resources. Sustainable competitive advantage
is achieved by continuously developing existing and creating new resources and capabilities in response
to rapidly changing market conditions Vadim Kotelnikov
