The Industrialist's Dilemma, Beth Comstock, GE (video)
The Industrialist's Dilemma Session 8: Beth Comstock, GE - At at time when GE is facing slowly-growing or no-growth market segments, industrial firms still have to find growth – both in their existing businesses and in new areas. GE saw digitization coming to several of its business units and realized that they had to make changes to how they were running the company, shared GE Vice Chair and CMO Beth Comstock. "We had to first say what digitization meant to our company, and we saw the opportunity. We had to name it to claim it. We said we saw the Industrial Internet."
During her visit to The Industrialist's Dilemma class on March 3, 2016, Beth discussed with Lecturers Robert Siegel and Aaron Levie how GE is changing its business models, partnering with Silicon Valley companies, and adding new competencies that complement its existing heritage.

The Industrialist's Dilemma Session 7: Mark Fields, Ford - The automotive industry is changing in fundamental ways across a wide variety of vectors – new technologies, changing consumer demand, unexpected entrants, etc. – all at the same time.

The Industrialist's Dilemma Session 6: Charlie Scharf, Visa (video)
The Industrialist's Dilemma Session 6: Charlie Scharf, Visa (published on Feb 23, 2016) - The payments industry is going through an unprecedented level of upheaval that is being driven by the migration to digital commerce. This transition is forcing payment companies to move from closed to open systems, which is completely different than how business used to be done, shared Visa CEO Charlie Scharf. "Everyone who is in the flow of [the payment] transaction should be scared to death... [Everyone] should sit back and ask, 'Can I be replaced?' And theoretically they can."
During his visit to The Industrialist's Dilemma class on February 18, 2016, Charlie discussed with Lecturers Robert Siegel and Aaron Levie how Visa is grappling with a changing global industry and how he is driving the organization through this huge transition.

Industrialist's Dilemma Session 5: Bernard Tyson, Kaiser Permanente
The Industrialist's Dilemma Session 5: Bernard Tyson, Kaiser Permanente - The healthcare industry in the United States is moving from one that previously focused on "fixing things that were broken" toward one where a person's ongoing health is becoming a key part of the relationship between patient and physician, shared Kaiser Permanente CEO Bernard Tyson. Approximately 75% of US healthcare spending today is focused on 20% of the population, and 90% of that 75% is focused on the last 12-18 months of a person's life. "We are in the midst of the most massive amount of change I have ever seen in my career in healthcare."
During his visit to The Industrialist's Dilemma class on February 11, 2016, Bernard discussed with Lecturers Robert Siegel and Aaron Levie how Kaiser Permanente and the entire industry is attempting to bring new ideas, new people and new technologies into the system.

The opportunity to remake healthcare in the United States starts with consumers owning their personal health data, shared 23andMe CEO Anne Wojcicki. Consumers are realizing that they do not have to simply do what their doctors say, and they can actually ask what various services will cost.

The Industrialist's Dilemma Session 3: Tony Fadell, Nest (video)
The Industrialist's Dilemma Session 3: Tony Fadell, Nest - Published on Jan 30, 2016 - The challenges of rethinking how one develops and delivers both products and services in industrial organizations is a non-trivial change in today's world, shared Nest CEO Tony Fadell. How one thinks through who the ultimate customer is for a company, the needs of those customers, and the organizational challenges of being an incumbent are both strong impediments for existing firms and opportunities for startups. "You have to start with a great product, but that is not enough... You have to figure out how to monetize those [products], and that is with services."
During his visit to The Industrialist's Dilemma on January 21, 2016, Tony discussed transforming old industries into data businesses with Lecturers Robert Siegel and Aaron Levie. Read more takeaways from the talk on Twitter: http://stanford.io/indusdilemma
