Online Course: New Product Success in Uncertain TimesThe Sustainable Advantage of Customer Alignment

During the pandemic, many companies have struggled to survive while others have completely collapsed. And yet, some are thriving. What shields some companies from economic and social disruption is their ability to maintain strategic alignment with the market category they serve. They have made evolutionary changes at exactly the right time.

New Product Success in Uncertain Times is a real-time, interactive online course that enables entrepreneurs, CEOs and product leaders to ensure the ongoing success of their new products or innovations, without having to visit a classroom or interrupt their work schedules. Through the process, you will strengthen your ability to achieve sustainable growth in revenue, while proactively developing the strategies needed for success in the new “normal” world of unpredictability and high risk.

This course helps companies that have been unable to achieve new product success because of unstable customer segments or unpredictable buyer behavior. It teaches you to leverage the value you deliver to the market and achieve mass-market adoption with your new product or innovation.

Today, a new landscape of risk has emerged, led by the Covid-19 pandemic, that has a profound effect on how people evaluate and buy new products. There is an increased level of unpredictability in the economy and in society that represent enormous risk for both suppliers and customers. These risks are increasingly focused on health and sustainability, but include factors such as: domestic political polarization, cyberattacks and technical/infrastructure security, and an information ecosystem that is plagued with fake and biased news.

Adding to this uncertainty is the increase in external competition. Many times, your competition will come from outside your industry rather than from within. The CAL framework guides your company to the creation of a solution that aligns with the core motivations and needs of your category. Category alignment transcends both the traditional non-traditional competitive landscape and protects your company from all competitive activities.
