Leaders of product-oriented companies are coming to understand and realize the benefits of offering services and solutions to their customers. Yet, few executive grasp the extent to which they must change their organizations in order to dramatically grow services and solutions.
Through synthesizing the findings of academic research and business publications, the book draws upon the authors’ years of consulting work and features the practical experience of managers in the midst of transforming product-centric companies into services and solutions businesses. Featuring vivid examples from leading companies such as DuPont, IBM, Siemens, Cisco and more, readers will come away with a clear understanding of how they can steadily transition and overcome the challenges of transforming their product-centric business models into model services and solutions businesses.
