There are two upcoming keynotes that I will be giving in the
months of September and October in relation to the burgeoning
Semantic Data Web. The events are: SABRE Conference
about the Social Semantic Web and Jupiter's
Semantic Web Strategies Fall Event.
The abstract of my Semantic Web Strategies keynote contains a
reference to the acronym MLD but it doesn't really expose what MLD
is (i.e. initial acronym source isn't clearly identified in the
abstract's opening paragraph). Thus, I am attempting to fix the
aforementioned anomally via this blog post :-)
Market Leadership Discipline (MLD) is defined as follows: A
strategy adopted by a company for attaining leadership in a given
marketplace.
MLD strategies usually take one of the following forms:
- Product Innovation - common amongst most startup and perpetual
startup mode companies
- Customer Intimacy - common amongst large and established market
leaders
- Operational Excellence - common amongst companies (established
or startup) that use Information Technology to enhance operations
behind the deliver of products and services.
MLD is a critical component of Enterprise Agility.
