Expert advice from Coca-Colas Vice President of Innovation and Entrepreneurship: Learn how the worlds largest beverage brand uses design to grow its business by combining the advantages of a large-scale company with the agility of a nimble startup.
 
Every company needs both scale and agility to win. From a fledging startup in Nepal, to a century-old multinational in New York, scale and agility are two qualities that are essential to every companys success. Start-ups understand agility. They know just when to pivot to stay alive. But what they havent mastered yet is how to stabilize their business model so they can move to the next stage and become full-fledged companies. And well-established companies know scale. They are successful because they know how to leverage size with a high degree of effectiveness and efficiency. But what worries them most is staying competitive in a world of increasing uncertainty and change, complicated by upstarts searching for ways to disrupt the industry. So what is the key to creating the kind of scale and agility necessary to stay competitive in this day and age? The answer is design.
 
In Design to Grow, a Coca-Cola senior executive shares both the successes and failures of one of the worlds largest companies as it learns to use design to be both agile and big. In this rare and unprecedented behind-the-scenes look, David Butler and senior Fast Company editor, Linda Tischler, use plain language and easy-to-understand case studies to show how this works at Coca-Colaand how other companies can use the same approach to grow their business. This book is a must-read for managers inside large corporations as well as entrepreneurs just getting started.


在今日這個變化萬千的動盪市場,企業不僅要面對產業內部的新問題,甚至連它們長久發展出來的競爭優勢,也承受了前所未見的新壓力。擁有規模的老牌大企業,它們的危機在於無法快速因應變局;至於那些最靈活的新創公司,則有九成因為無法擴大規模而宣告失敗。凡是想要與時俱進、不斷成長的企業,「規模」與「靈活」都是不可或缺的必備條件。有什麼東西,能夠幫助我們同時創造規模與靈活?答案是──設計。
 
可口可樂是全世界最大的企業之一,過去一百多年來,它運用設計的力量,將規模拓展到兩百多個國家,打造出價值170億美元的品牌,與它結盟的零售客戶超兩千萬家,每天賣出將近20億件產品。儘管如此,可口可樂仍不斷學習。過去十年來,公司把焦點擺在如何利用設計提升靈活──這是大多數老牌企業最頭痛的問題,包括可口可樂在內。
 
在這本書中,可口可樂公司的創新與創業副總裁巴特勒,分享了可口可樂如何利用設計帶動成長,以及它在學習過程中經歷了哪些成功與失敗。在這本史無前例的幕後觀察裡,巴特勒和《高速企業》的資深編輯提許勒,將揭開設計語言的神祕面紗,把一些含混不清的用語轉化成一套平實易懂的原則,以各種實際案例,幫助讀者了解設計可以扮演怎樣的角色,讓全世界規模最大的公司變得更靈活,更能適應這個複雜多變的世界;而其他各種規模和產業的公司,也能從可口可樂的經驗中學習,藉由同樣的路徑,達到企業成長的目標。
