Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Business Model Navigator is a structured methodology that helps you innovate your business model. It consists of 55 patterns that help you change at least two of your business model’s dimensions. #2 A business’s long-term competitive success depends on its ability to create an innovative business model. There are very few European firms that have been able to do so successfully. #3 Business model innovation is the process of changing the way a business operates, and it is a major factor in driving growth and competitiveness. It is no longer sufficient to focus on product or process innovation, as increasing competitive pressure, globalisation, and competitors in the East all erode formerly prominent positions. #4 Empirical research has shown that business model innovation carries a greater potential for success than product or process innovation. A company’s fate increasingly depends on its ability to apply the appropriate innovative business model that differentiates it from its competitors.

A business model describes the rationale of how an organization creates, delivers, and captures value, in economic, social, cultural or other contexts. The process of business model construction is part of business strategy. In theory and practice, the term business model is used for a broad range of informal and formal descriptions to represent core aspects of a business, including purpose, business process, target customers, offerings, strategies, infrastructure, organizational structures, trading practices, and operational processes and policies. The literature has provided very diverse interpretations and definitions of a business model. A systematic review and analysis of manager responses to a survey defines business models as the design of organizational structures to enact a commercial opportunity. Further extensions to this design logic emphasize the use of narrative or coherence in business model descriptions as mechanisms by which entrepreneurs create extraordinarily successful growth firms. Business models are used to describe and classify businesses, especially in an entrepreneurial setting, but they are also used by managers inside companies to explore possibilities for future development. Well-known business models can operate as "recipes" for creative managers. Business models are also referred to in some instances within the context of accounting for purposes of public reporting.
