When Success Becomes Your Downfall
Why do industry titans collapse at their peak? The answer lies in a profound paradox: they fail not despite following best practices, but because of them. Clayton Christensen's groundbreaking research reveals how listening to customers, pursuing higher margins, and making rational resource allocations-hallmarks of good management-can become fatal flaws when disruptive innovations emerge. Imagine building the perfect ship only to discover the rules of navigation have suddenly changed. This is the innovator's dilemma: the very principles that drive success can eventually ensure failure. What makes this insight so powerful is that it doesn't blame incompetent leadership but shows how thoughtful, disciplined management can lead companies astray when facing certain types of innovation. The pattern repeats across industries with remarkable consistency-from disk drives to excavators, steel mills to retail-suggesting it's not a series of individual mistakes but a structural phenomenon as inevitable as gravity.
