New technologies and business models belie or change some of those assumptions, but they only seem sensible if the management team can become aware of those implicit assumptions and mind-sets and suspend them for a moment to contemplate the change. It’s very hard to do that with the inherited wisdom, experience, and lore of a company. This is why the failures of incumbents to capture the benefits of disruptive innovations are a result not of bad managers, but of good managers practicing what they have done best. Incremental innovations can quickly be scaled and incorporated. Disruptive innovations require changes in customer sets, business models, or performance metrics that are no longer consistent with what led to success in the past.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Stefan Heck" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/stefan-heck/a-company-at-the-top-of-its-game-has-accumulated-a-number-of-rules-of/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/09c/stefan-heck-93921_bad-man_a-company-at-the-top-of-its-game-has-acc_416967.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/09c/stefan-heck-93921_bad-man_a-company-at-the-top-of-its-game-has-acc_416967.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/09c/stefan-heck-93921_bad-man_a-company-at-the-top-of-its-game-has-acc_416967.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“A company at the top of its game has accumulated a number of rules of thumb—implicit assumptions and beliefs…” — Stefan Heck", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“A cross-section of Watt’s steam engine, the machine that heralded the first industrial revolution.
