deep commitment to working across organizational
boundary.” p. 69

Reading I-3 (cont.)
Three Tests to Identify Core Competencies (p. 70)
1. A core competence provides potential access to a
wide variety of markets.
2. A core competence should make a significant
contribution to the perceived customer benefits of
the end product.
3. A core competence should be difficult for
competitors to imitate.
Limitations
• Few companies are likely to build world leadership in more than five or six fundamental competencies

Strategic Questions:
How long could we preserve our competitiveness in this
business if we did not control this particular core
competence?
How central is the core competence to perceived
customer benefits?
What future opportunities would be foreclosed if we were
to lose this particular competence?
Does the new market opportunities add to the overall
goal of becoming the best player in the world?
Does it exploit or add to the core competence?
