The Explainer: The 5 Forces That Make Companies Successful

Michael Porter’s theory has shaped a generation of academic research and business practice. Understanding the competitive forces, and their underlying causes, reveals the roots of an industry’s current profitability while providing a framework for anticipating and influencing competition (and profitability) over time. A healthy industry structure should be as much a competitive concern to strategists as their company’s own position. Understanding industry structure is also essential to effective strategic positioning. Defending against the competitive forces and shaping them in a company’s favor are crucial to strategy. --------------------------------------------------------------------- At Harvard Business Review, we believe in management.
