On 1997's Pop, U2 continued experimenting; tape loops, programming, rhythm sequencing, and sampling provided much of the album with heavy, funky dance rhythms. Released in March, the album debuted at number one in 35 countries, and drew mainly positive reviews. Rolling Stone, for example, stated that U2 had "defied the odds and made some of the greatest music of their lives". Others felt that the album was a major disappointment and sales were poor compared to previous U2 releases. The band was hurried into completing the album in time for the impending pre-booked tour, and Bono admitted that the album "didn't communicate the way it was intended to".

Achieving competitive advantage through systematic competitor and market analysis

In times of increasing competition and complex, fast-moving competitive environments, it is important to be one step ahead of the competition. Businesses have to anticipate the activities of their competitors when developing their strategic positioning.Competitive analyses are essential to the successful development of corporate strategy, conducting anticipatory strategy planning and gaining a measurable competitive advantage. Competitive Intelligence, which brings in a systematic analysis process, adds the decisive edge to strategy.

Workshop foci

- The value of Competitive Intelligence (CI) for your business
- Analysis of one's own company:
Where are we now and where do we intend to go'
- Handling the information overload and testing the quality of data
- Analytical methods to determine the competitive and market situation
- Successful implementation of a CI system in a business

For the real world application of CI fundamentals you will work on a complete CI case study

CI basics are taught in this workshop using a case study. The CI process steps are practiced and CI tools and techniques absorbed. With the training from this course, typical process mistakes are less likely, because participants gain practical aptitude in applying CI methods and techniques. Through team work, interpersonal work techniques are encouraged and communication experiences established.

Workshop foci

- Definition of the CI requirements
- Planning of the CI cycle
- Execution of the CI cycle
- Development of a continuous competitive information system

SWOT, industry structure analysis, profiling, portfolio analysis and analysis of competing hypothesis (ACH)

In this workshop, the fundamental methods of Competitivce Intelligence analysis are taught and practiced with examples. Command of these analysis techniques is a prerequisite for all subsequent "higher-order" analytical processes. To plan efficient CI projects, it is necessary to provide the data required for each analytical tool, and is only possible if one has acquired at least working knowledge of CI analysis techniques.
