Audience


The New Zealand Software Association is thrilled to bring this one day workshop from the Chasm Institute to Auckland. This is a rare opportunity to participate in a world class workshop that has helped businesses achieve escape velocity, by freeing their future from the pull of their past.

Overview

This one day workshop is an opportunity to apply the knowledge of two highly successful books by Geoffrey Moore: ESCAPE VELOCITY: Free Your Company’s Future from the Pull of the Past and ZONE TO WIN: Organizing to Win in an Age of Disruption. ESCAPE VELOCITY is a landmark guide that has served as a framework for avoiding the mistakes made by one-time market leaders including Kodak, GE, Digital Equipment, Motorola, and Nokia. ZONE TO WIN serves as the companion playbook for organizing and managing established enterprises of any size in a time of category disruption, building on lessons learned from engagements with both Salesforce and Microsoft.

The Chasm Institute was formed by Geoffrey Moore and Mark Cavender. Its goal is to empower companies with the Chasm’s powerful theories and disciplines of marketing disruptive innovations. This provides a comprehensive framework from which to develop coherent and effective strategies.
