Few managers truly understand the fine art of "how to control" the intangible and somehow enigmatic 'laws and rules' of the competition in the marketplace. And hardly anybody knows about the compelling and proven techniques of how to purposefully change them in their own favour. 'The Impossible Advantage' reveals some surprising news: how virtually "anybody" can learn the art of the Game Masters and Game Changers. There are no demanding prerequisites: just get ready to engage in a mind-opening and provocatively different way of thinking.

The authors illustrate that the biggest, most spectacular and groundbreaking business success stories feature companies that make the rules - instead of just following them. The best companies seem to know how to break, change, or reinvent the rules of the market that everyone else follows. This book:
