The document discusses new approaches to strategic planning in a changing global environment. It argues that traditional approaches focusing on products and industry forces are too limited, and companies must become more adaptive. The new approach involves focusing less on commoditization and more on creating a unique space in the market. Companies should develop dynamic strategic positions and define their business model by segmenting customers, building value propositions for each segment, and performing a unique set of activities. The final lesson is that while careful planning is important, companies must remain adaptable to change, as emphasized by Napoleon's motto.

Our world is becoming increasingly complex. So much
that it is quite difficult to find solutions.
Our world is more dynamic every time. Hence, the
solutions we find do not last.
Moreover, when we find the solution, the problem has
already changed.
