A new model for strategy and entrepreneurship in China
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting‐edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach – This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings – Since its inception in 1979, Porter's five forces model has been used by countless academics and professionals to describe and analyse competitive forces in business. However, the authors of this article believe that this model is no longer (if it ever was) relevant to strategy development and implementation for entrepreneurs in China. In order to find out if Porter's model had played a part in shaping business practice in the country, Wang and Chang carried out a survey of senior managers and entrepreneurs in China and from overseas. Practical implications – The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world's leading organizations. Originality/ value – The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy‐to‐digest format.
