Findings
One of the most common, and indeed cliched, terms used in business refers to the “cutting edge”. Referring to the latest technology or innovation, it is generally accepted as being a good thing to be on the cutting edge. Firms boast about their cutting edge, organizations salute the cutting edge of their employees and governments applaud the cutting edge of their policies. Everyone wants to be on the cutting edge, and no one wants to be on whatever the opposite of the cutting edge is. Blunt edge? Reverse edge? Retreating edge?
Practical Implications
Provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations.
