Strategic offensives
It often is said that the competitive strategy of business and war have many features in common. Let's take a moment to look at competitive rivalry. Competitors, no matter the market, engage in competitive rivalry in order to gain an advantageous market position. This rivalry results in competitive action which is followed by competitive response. Businesses are mutually interdependent - they feel each other's actions and responses. A good example is the action and reactions of airlines in the domestic market. When one airline raises prices, other airlines do the same and vice versa.
