Paths for Corporate Entrepreneurship and Business Model Innovation
3
There are distinct paths for Business Model Innovation Value Creation and Capture
Business Model Innovation
Enterprise model (EM) Innovation
Innovating value chain roles by:
changing the extended enterprise to be more integrated or specialized
transforming networks with employees, suppliers, customers, and others
Revenue Model (RM) Innovation
Innovating how
revenue is generated
through:
new value propositions
pricing models
Industry model (IM) Innovation
Innovating the industry
value chain by:
moving into new industries
redefining existing ones
or creating entirely new value chains

Revenue Model Innovation – Driving shifts in underlying pricing and revenue models
Companies are transforming the “rules of the game” in their industry by driving fundamental shifts in the underlying pricing and revenue models
Examples: Distinct Pricing and Revenue Model Innovations
Replacing traditional pay per individual product models with selling periodic use or access to products and services
Example: Newspapers & Magazines, movie rental subscription, mobile phones, pay TV channels
Subscription Model
The razor & blade model (also called “tied products model”) works by selling initial master product at a subsidized price or even at a loss, and making profit on high margin consumables that are essential
Examples: Gillette razor/blades, Computer printer/cartridge, mobile phone/air time
Razor & Blade Model
Many industries see a transition from a traditional product focus to service focus, often changing the traditional dichotomy of products vs service to a continuum and alignment
Examples: Electronics industry, e.g. IBMs replacing traditional product focus through service led “business solutions”
Product to Services Model
In several industries (e.g. Media and entertainment) digitization of content has created entirely new models, such as charging for different ring tones

Enterprise Model Innovation – Collaboration & Partnering
Integration of business processes
Supply relationships
Joint R&D
Joint distribution
Joint ventures
Co-creation
Franchises
Equity
participation
Financial participation
Arm’s-length contract
Mergers and acquisitions
Partnerships
Collaborators seek collaboration in a selected number of business areas/components
Partnerships and collaboration range from supplier relationships to legal joint ventures, even leading to ‘value networks’
Collaboration partnership continuum

Industry Model Innovation – Transforming Traditional Industry Value Chains
Companies are changing the “rules of the game” by challenging traditional value chains through disintermediation
Most significant advances were enabled through the internet as new “direct models” allowed cutting out the middle man
Example: The “Dell Direct” Model
Direct path to the customer
Single point of accountability
Build-to-Order
Low cost leadership
Standards-based technology
Magretta J. (1998) The Power of Virtual Integration: An Interview with Dell Computer’s Michael Dell, Harvard Business Review, March–April 1998 Issue
IBM Confidential
Dell Direct Model
Efficient path to the customer (no intermediaries, organization around groups of customers with similar needs)
Single point of accountability (Dell directly)
Build-to-Order (custom configuration and ordering, lower inventory, better pricing and latest tech)
Low cost leadership (standards-based technologies developed collaboratively with industry partners, constant cost reduction)
Standards-based technology (unlike proprietary technologies, standards give customers flexibility and choice)
Industry Model Innovation – Leverage Resources and Assets through Horizontal Moves
Record Company
Retailer
Consumer
Music Artist
Agent
Airline
Consumer
Manufacturer
Music industry
Airline industry
Example: Virgin horizontal moves
Most prominent examples are leveraging brand assets to move aggressively from one value chain to another.
Companies are exporting differentiating expertise / experience / assets to a comparable part of another industry value chain

Examples
Business Model Innovation
Enterprise model Innovation
Revenue model Innovation
Gillette innovated the pricing model by giving away razors and making money on the blades
Netflix shifted the revenue model from product / rental based to a subscription based annuity model
PRICING / REVENUE MODEL
VALUE PROPOSITION
Cirque du Soleil reconfigured offering and value elements to transform the circus experience
INTEGRATION
Zara’s Fast Fashion model is supported by a highly integrated business model along its value chain
SPECIALIZATION
Bharti created a highly specialized Telco business model by focusing only on its key differentiators – marketing, sales and distribution – and partnering for everything else
EXTERNAL COLLABORATION
P&G’s innovative R&D collaboration model “connect & develop”, sourcing over 50% of ideas externally
Industry model Innovation
INDUSTRY TRANSFORMATION
Moving from one value chain to another, leveraging its brand across industries including airline, media and telecoms
HORIZONTAL MOVES
Apple transformed the music industry through a new way of connecting hardware with software to download music with iPods/iTunes product & service combination
Dell redefined the PC value chain and industry model by using a direct to customer sales model

Profit Pools
10
Profit
Managers tend to think about profit in one of three ways:
accounting profit,
return on investment, or
cash-flow contribution.
11
Accounting Profit
Blueprint that defines how the company creates value for itself while providing value to the customer.
Revenue model: price × volume
Cost structure: direct costs, indirect costs, economies of scale. Cost structure will be predominantly driven by the cost of the key resources required by the business model.
Margin model: given the expected volume and cost structure, the contribution needed from each transaction to achieve desired profits.
Resource velocity: how fast we need to turn over inventory, fixed assets, and other assets – and, overall, how well we need to utilize resources – to support our expected volumes.
12
Johnson, MW, Christensen CM and Kagermann H (2008) Reinventing your business model, Harvard Business Review, December 2008
Are Innovation and Accounting Contradictory? Or can They Complement Each Other?
Innovation: typically associated with future-focused creativity.
Freedom to innovate
Accounting: associated with practicality, transparency, logical thinking, and stability.
Investment
13
Discussion: Are Accountants and CFOs Killing Innovation?
How do accounting principles inhibit innovation?
“What can you do when penny-pinchers get in the way of your disruptive ideas to make necessary, often disruptive, changes in your company?”

Value Based Management

Value maximization is the ultimate financial objective for a company.
Traditional financial performance measures, such as earnings or earnings growth, are not always good proxies for value creation.
To focus more directly on creating value, companies should set goals in terms of discounted cash flow value, the most direct measure of value creation. Such targets also need to be translated into shorter-term, more objective financial performance targets.
Return on Investment: A Measure of How Well we Leverage Resources, Capabilities and Competences in our Business Model.
The value tree helps to find leverage points across the resource pool of a corporation

Profit Pools
17
Profit Pools: Identify which Activities are Generating Disproportionately Large or Small Shares of Profits
Define where your value chain begins and ends….
Define the size of the pool…….
Determine how the profits are distributed across the value chain activities ……
…. clearly defined list of the individual value-chain activities that make up your profit pool.
……the total amount of profits being earned in all the value chain activities (May not be same as industry boundaries).
….. know the profits (as well as revenues, costs, and margins) of each value-chain activity.

Example/Discussion
Discuss the value chain
What are the value chain activities?
How big are they?
Where are the profits being made?
How can we change profitability?

Value Pools in the Telecomm Industry
Network transformation will be necessary to enable new business models beyond the pipe and address changing customer expectations (e.g. new business models around IoT)
New business models leveraging emerging technologies will require strong collaboration with vertical industries and internet platforms.
Operating in the digital age requires corporate cultural change along with new organizational structures.
Digitization of the industry will require a transformation of existing policy and regulatory models
