Items related to Only the Paranoid Survive
The President and CEO of Intel, the world’s largest chipmaker, tells how he has managed to overcome various crises at Intel – and reveals how to identify and exploit the key moments of change in any industry that can lead to either drastic failure or incredible success
Under Andy Grove’s leadership, Intel has become the world’s largest computer chipmaker, the 5th most admired company in America and the 7th most profitable among the Fortune 500.
Grove attributes this success to the philosophy and strategy he has learned from steering Intel through a series of potential disasters he calls strategic inflection points.
Extrapolating the lessons he has learned from e.g. the fiercely competitive Japanese, the drama of the Pentium flaw, and the rise of the Internet, he gives a unique insight into the management of change.

Review:
Only the Paranoid Survive is about recognizing, overcoming and even profiting from the inevitable groundshifts in commercial life that, by changing the fundamentals of the business environment, shake established enterprises to the core and raise newcomers to power and wealth. Grove takes this simple--if unarguably true--idea and brings it alive with a wealth of examples, shrewd understanding of corporate dynamics, and unblinking realism about why businesses succeed or fail. Many of his war stories are based on Intel's own missteps, including the famous Pentium floating-point fiasco. He also spends a lot of time talking sense about corporate cultures, how they react under extreme stress, and the factors that enable one to survive while dooming another to die. Only the Paranoid Survive is a mirror in which everyone in the computer industry should view the company they work for, and the course of their own career.
Review:
‘This book is about one super important concept. You must learn about strategic inflection points because sooner or later you are going to live through one’
