Understanding Michael Porter – Joan Magretta

209

Michael Porter’s frameworks on competitive advantage, the value chain, five forces, industry structure, differentiation, and relative cost serve as the foundation for understanding how companies achieve and maintain competitive success. However, despite his widespread recognition in the business world, many managers misconstrue and misapply his concepts.

“Understanding Michael Porter” seeks to set the record straight by providing a concise and accessible summary of Porter’s revolutionary thinking. Joan Magretta, Porter’s former editor at Harvard Business Review, wrote the book with Porter’s full cooperation, ensuring fresh and clear examples to illustrate and update his ideas.

Magretta draws on her extensive business experience to translate Porter’s powerful insights into practical applications and address common misconceptions. For instance, she clarifies that competition is about being unique, not just being the best, and that strategy involves making choices that may displease some customers while satisfying others, rather than trying to cater to all customers.

An additional feature of the book is an original Q&A with Porter himself, addressing frequently asked questions from managers.

With its eminently readable style, “Understanding Michael Porter” equips managers in any organization to grasp Porter’s ideas and swiftly implement them to drive their company’s success.
