6 Principles of B.O.S
"Reconstruct Market": Re-evaluate the premises that form your industry's assumptions and shape your company's business model.

"Focus on the Big Picture, Not the Numbers": Keep your eye on the overall view and dont get lost in the statistics.

"Reach Beyond Existing Demand": Businesses naturally focus on current customers, a process that invariably leads to greater market segmention analysis.

"Get the Strategic Sequence Right": Execute your strategy sequentially to achieve your "value innovation."

"Overcome Key Organizational Hurdles": Successful execution demands that your company must resolve internal department differences

"Build Execution into Strategy": Reduce your management risk by incorporating Blue Ocean implementation into your company's ongoing processes.
