Key points:

Point 1: Operating performance and structural advantage are separate parts of strategy and management.

Point 2: But they are also linked. By a select list of capabilities, resources, and assets (CRAs)

Point 3: Operating activities create and maintain CRAs, which can be tangible and intangible.

Point 4: Sometimes CRAs can manifest as competitive advantages and barriers to entry.

Point 5: CEOs need to identify moats. And then chart a path of critical CRAs to build and rebuild them.
