However, after taking some time to think about it I started to wonder: Why should f.i. Dell care about business model innovation? Surely not advocating business model innovation/management just for the fun of it. So, what are the strategic implications for not innovating in the field of business models for, say, Dell? Kind regards, Walter Hi Alexander,

I look forward to further inspiration and learning.

The 'Book Preview' has already made me sit down and jot down draft plans ( yes plans) for ideas and visions. Alex and team just made me think that I CAN become one. I am not an entrepreneur.
