Fast
Second - - Amit Singh Sisodiya
It
is no longer an advantage to be the first mover. In
fact, it no longer matters, as the success of several
late movers suggests. IBM has demonstrated it in mainframes,
while others like JVC in video recorders, Canon when
it comes to cameras, and P&G in diapers. Today, it pays
to be a late entrant, or more appropriately, a fast
second mover.
