CEO of Competitive Advantages, and author of the provocative and insightful book Outsmart the MBA Clones: The Alternative Guide to Competitive Strategy, Marketing and Branding, Dan Herman reveals the secret of immensely successful companies that are adored by their customers and yet are not imitated by their competition.
Dan describes how MBA programs, despite their apparent diversity, produce executives who think and act in a similar and predictable manner. This undermines the competitiveness of their companies, and provides a strategic advantage to those who recognize these biases and think differently.
