Free navigation apps on smartphones wreaked havoc for the makers of stand-alone GPS devices. Airbnb and other resource-sharing services are undermining hotels. Uber, SideCar and Lyft are reinventing the heavily regulated taxi and limousine industry. These are just a few of hundreds of examples of Big Bang Disruptions — new products and services that enter the market better and cheaper than established products, seemingly overnight. Big Bang Disruption presents a radical new framework for this phenomenon. The authors detail the four stages of big bang innovation and show leaders how to see disruptions headed their way — and take action before it’s too late.
