Profit Pools
Book •
Profit Pools, by Orit Gadiesh and James L. Gilbert, explores how total industry profits are distributed across different activities and segments rather than being proportional to revenue.
The authors encourage executives to map profit pools to identify high-margin segments and reposition their businesses to capture more value.
Using case studies and analytical frameworks, the book shows that focusing only on market share can miss where the real profit lies.
It provides practical guidance for strategy and resource allocation to shift a firm's position toward more profitable parts of the value chain.
The concept has become influential in strategy work for understanding competitive advantage beyond top-line measures.
