Preparing link to download Please wait... Attached file not found

E-Book Overview

The St. Gallen Management Concept could be termed the DNA of the Integrated Business Model that is developed and detailed by Oliver D. Doleski. The practical St. Gallen Management Concept offers a good conceptual framework for the development of change, and increasingly dynamic change, which is now more than ever the key factor shaping business actions. The complexity arising from this very dynamism is becoming a defining characteristic of today’s markets. Traditional methods and business models can deliver less than ideal results in this difficult environment. New approaches to business development are needed. To master complexity, these approaches must fully integrate all of the many and diverse aspects and demands of normative, strategic and operational management.

Doleski, published by Springer Vieweg in 2014. Smart Market… is an examination by the two editors and other contributing authors of key areas for action on tomorrow’s energy market, in the light of the current debate on Germany’s energy transition. The following pages are a translation of the fully revised and updated version of the chapter by Oliver D. Doleski entitled ‘Entwicklung neuer Geschäftsmodelle für die Energiewirtschaft – das Integrierte Geschäftsmodell’. For publication in the ‘Springer Essentials’ series, the focus of the original article has been changed: this volume takes a broad, cross-sector approach rather than concentrating on the energy market. As well as broadening the proposed business model approach to cover all industries, this volume also modifies and expands each of the five phases of business model development.
