About this listen

Blue Ocean Shift is the essential follow up to Blue Ocean Strategy, the classic and 3.6 million copy global best seller by world-renowned professors W. Chan Kim and Renee Mauborgne.

Drawing on more than a decade of new work, Kim and Mauborgne show you how to move beyond competing, inspire your people's confidence, and seize new growth, guiding you step-by-step through how to take your organization from a red ocean crowded with competition to a blue ocean of uncontested market space. By combining the insights of human psychology with practical market-creating tools and real-world guidance, Kim and Mauborgne deliver the definitive guide to shift yourself, your team, or your organization to new heights of confidence, market creation, and growth. They show why nondisruptive creation is as important as disruption in seizing new growth.

Blue Ocean Shift is packed with all-new research and examples of how leaders in diverse industries and organizations made the shift and created new markets by applying the process and tools outlined in the book. Whether you are a cash-strapped startup or a large, established company, nonprofit or national government, you will learn how to move from red to blue oceans in a way that builds your people's confidence so that they own and drive the process.

With battle-tested lessons learned from successes and failures in the field, Blue Ocean Shift is critical listening for leaders, managers, and entrepreneurs alike. You'll learn what works, what doesn't, and how to avoid the pitfalls along the way. This book will empower you to succeed as you embark on your own blue ocean journey. Blue Ocean Shift is indispensable for anyone committed to building a compelling future.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

As many have mentioned, this audiobook refers to a lot of diagrams and visuals in order to fully grasp the principles it's sharing. I was frustrated listening to it as well.

Until, I discovered that a reference PDF with all the diagrams are in the Library section of your Audible account.

It's very helpful and provides a much better understanding of the book.

If you read the 1st book, you will find a lot of similarities and same examples in this book. The few differences would probably be the direct examples in government and some of the tools provided in the PDF. Good for reviewing same concepts from the first book
