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.
