Over the past number of years multi-national subsidiaries in Ireland have taken on board the challenges of securing mandates, moving up the value chain and becoming an increasingly important and influential part of the wider corporation, many creatively using the Molloy-Delany ideas & tools from the ‘Blue Book' to become major players within their respective corporations.
Since the original publication of the ‘Blue Book' in 1997, the ideas and tools, which are the foundation of much current strategy, have been significantly refined and enriched, particularly with state-of-the-art materials on Systemic Innovation.
Join Rosemaree Danaher, IBM Ireland Strategy & Integration Manager; Ciaran Ennis, who played a central role in IBM Ireland's evolution from a 250 person sales operation to today's high tech employer of 4000 people; and Dr Eddie Molloy and Dr Ed Delany, co-authors of the Molloy-Delany ‘Blue Book', as they illustrate the application of these ideas with concrete examples from leading subsidiary companies in Ireland.
