All enterprises face the question of how to increase international competitiveness. Strategies should create value for all stakeholders. The successful enterprise invents its opportunities, rather than just hoping to find them. The authors describe a concept which shows that the organization is a cognitive system of core competences and strategic business units. Practical advice is given on determining core competences. They show why the customer is not always right. The context is the learning organization.
