1) Define competitive
advantage (CA).
2) Distinguish CA
carefully from sustainable CA (SCA).
3) How much more
common is CA than SCA and why?
4) Return to
Ghemawat’s reading in module 1: put my last question into an
empirical context – how sustainable is CA
generally?
5) What implications
does all this have for executive strategy?
