Capital Project Management Volume III

<p>As an extension of Volumes I and II of this series this book contains a detailed elaboration of the Tesla story in a way that also serves to examine the interaction of technology and economic forces that determine the structural profitability of any industry especially capital-intense industries. The economics are the five forces introduced to the management lexicon by strategic management scholars. Here there is strong emphasis on the interplay among product technology production and supply chains and Wall Street.</p><p>The author is a retired business professor; his research interest has been the management of technology and innovation. For this book he double-checked none of the 1250 media items collected accepting their overall veracity at face value. This approach advocates no one person no one company no one technology and no portion of the global automobile industry. Analysis and practical application came foremost.</p>
