Minding your own business model


By Rebecca McCaffry

When did you last think about your organisation’s business model? In today’s dynamic environment, business models must change and adapt in order to deliver sustainable value.

There is great opportunity for management accountants, who have a holistic view of operations, to guide business model success – always assuming, of course, that they understand the business model in the first place. But without a common definition of the term, where do you start?

Our latest CGMA report will help you - and your colleagues - focus upon ‘what’ business models are, ‘why’ they succeed or fail, and ‘how’ to make sure they remain relevant, using real-life examples of business model innovations, successes and disasters.

Building Resilience: An introduction to business models is available now, from the resources section of cgma.org.
