In a globalized economy, information and communication technologies are constantly accelerating market evolution and transformation.
These same technologies transform the world into a big virtual and cooperative network where innovative technology and knowledge are rapidly and widely being transmitted.
All companies are deeply affected by these transformations.
Historically, these changes and their acceleration have never been equaled in the history of mankind. This new permanently evolving world becomes a manager’s daily concern.
Businesses and organizations should therefore deal with these new challenges; some of the most significant are:
Customers’ increasing demands
(quality of products and services,
pressure over prices and deadlines)
Increasingly intense and diverse
international competition
Human resources changes
(behavior, relationship with employer, diversity and multiculturalism…)
Constantly changing
communication technology
Establish a contract of trust
with the clients, the personnel, the shareholders, the partners, the suppliers
Urgent need for sustainable and profitable growth that creates value and respects man and his environment
Darwinism is the fixing point of Oxytès’ approach:
we systematically integrate in our methodologies the thematic of adaptation to one’s environment.
As Pascal Picq specifies in one of his publications:
“Management is responsible for internal factors but the environment selects.”Pascal Picq, “A paleontologist in business – Adapt and innovate to survive”
The profound analysis of a company, the definition or redefinition of a company’s business model is the key element for one to adapt to his environment and to identify the means of value creation (client, customer relationship, cost structure, income flow, core competences, resources…).
