A Thought-Exercise on Identifying Distinctive Competencies

Pragmatic Live Chat

“Distinctive Competencies are rarely a product feature because a distinctive competency isn’t easily copied. If you come out with a new product feature today, your competitor could copy that within a few months.”

In this episode of Pragmatic Live, Rebecca Kalogeris, VP of marketing for Pragmatic Institute, and Pragmatic instructor Mark Stiving will lead the audience through an exercise to identify and apply distinctive competencies using some of the biggest brands in the world.

Not only will you learn about the power of distinctive competencies, but also how to start thinking about and leveraging them within your own organization.
They also discuss:

  • What are distinctive competencies and why do they matter
  • Examples of distinctive competencies at big brands (Disney, Amazon, LinkedIn, Zappos and Walmart)
  • How to get more differentiation for your products
