This week’s podcast is Part 2 of Capabilities, Resources and Assets (CRAs). They are a key part of strategy. And link operating performance with structural advantages. Here is Part 1.
You can listen to this podcast here, which has the slides and graphics mentioned. Also available at iTunes and Google Podcasts.
Here is the link to the TechMoat Consulting.
Key points:
Point 1: Operating performance and structural advantage are separate parts of strategy and management.
Point 2: But they are also linked. By a select list of capabilities, resources, and assets (CRAs)
Point 3: Operating activities create and maintain CRAs, which can be tangible and intangible.
Point 4: Sometimes CRAs can manifest as competitive advantages and barriers to entry.
Point 5: CEOs need to identify moats. And then chart a path of critical CRAs to build and rebuild them.
