Publisher's Summary
In an audiobook that challenges everything you thought you knew, W. Chan Kim and Renee Mauborgne assert that tomorrow's leading companies will succeed, not by battling their rivals for market share in the bloody "red ocean" of a shrinking profit pool, but by creating "blue oceans" of untapped new market spaces ripe for growth.
Based on a study of 150 strategic moves, spanning more than 100 years and 30 industries, they provide a systematic approach that every company can use to render rivals obsolete and unleash new demand:
Critic Reviews
"Theirs is not the typical business management book's vague call to action; it is a precise, actionable plan for changing the way companies do business with one resounding piece of advice: swim for open waters." (Publishers Weekly)

Insightful but abridged
This was well read and insightful book that best of all is practical. However it seems the audiobook is either abridged or an old edition, as it is missing several chapters from the kindle book.

Great ideas and unique perspectives
Great read for any entrepreneur or business owner out there. Will get you to think in a way you haven't considered before. Great examples of real businesses that have used the "Blue Ocean Strategy" to leave the competition behind.

worth a read
this book has great content but the narrator's voice is mind numbingly boring. it's worth listening to, especially if you're an early stage business owner or entrepreneur.

An oldie that needs updating
Definitely worth a listen but is in need of a serious revision, especially when it comes to the tech sector since 2006. Fundamentals of Blue Oceans haven't changed and this book is well rounded for anyone looking at exploring this system. Note: Found the narrator's voice lecturing.

Poor quality audio
This version is very poor quality, the recording must be really old. Couldn’t get through the first chapter. Not worth downloading.

Great idea, terrible arguments
"Blue Ocean Strategy" is a great idea. However the examples are a string of cherry picked examples of "Hey, this company succeeded with something that kinda looks like our proposed strategy! let's say that's why they succeeded! You could read like the first 2 or 3 chapters and after that you're wasting your time. Their examples are grounded on mind bendingly bad logic. This would have been fine if they said "We advised these companies on this strategy, and this is what happened", but it's all conjecture.
This book was exhausting.
