The Five Forces Framework and Competitive Strategy In this framework due to Michael Porter there are two high-level stages in the creation of competitive strategy‚ each stage corresponding to a high-level determinant of profitability mentioned in the previous section. The first stage is the assessment of the attractiveness of the industry in which a given company is embedded based on a structural analysis of the industry. In this stage‚ called the five forces framework‚ five forces that influence

“The Five Forces helped me” Some readers complained that in criticizing the Five Forces analysis I was trashing something that they had found useful. I am glad to hear that some people have found help from Porter’s five-forces model. It is however a bit like saying that we had success for over a thousand years in predicting the movements of the planets with the geocentric model of the universe‚ so why should we accept that the earth revolves around the sun? There are ways to reinterpret Porter’s

Reflection Paper on “Globalization‚ Women’s Work‚ And Care Needs: The Urgency of Reconciliation Policies” by Lourdes Beneria The major argument conveyed by the author is that the increase in women’s participation in the labour force in many countries have created the “crisis of care”‚ which is the tensions created by the difficulties that families encounter in trying to balancing family time and work.

new firms entering. Barriers to entry‚ unlike all other factors in the five forces model‚ actually raises profits in a five forces analysis. This is because high barriers to entry prevent firms that could easily come into the market and take away profits. Other forces such as supplier power‚ buyer power‚ threat of substitutes‚ and industry rivalry‚ have moderate power in this industry. This would usually present a case of relatively lower profits in the industry – however we see that industry profitability

is continuing interest in the study of the forces that impact on an organisation‚ particularly those that can be harnessed to provide competitive advantage. The ideas and models which emerged during the period from 1979 to the mid-1980s (Porter‚ 1998) were based on the idea that competitive advantage came from the ability to earn a return on investment that was better than the average for the industry sector (Thurlby‚ 1998). As Porter’s 5 Forces analysis deals with factors outside an industry that

defined and discussed in the text. The momentum of an object with mass m and velocity [pic] is [pic]. The impulse of a resultant force from time t1 to time t2 is When the force is plotted versus time‚ the impulse is the area under the curve between t1 and t2. [pic] The impulse-momentum relationship states that if an object with mass m is acted on by a force over the time interval from t1 to t2‚ the impulse is equal to the change in momentum: [pic]. This can easily be derived from Newton’s
