This chapter explains what strategy is and why it is important to individuals and organizations in achieving their goals. We will distinguish strategy from planning. Strategy is not a detailed plan or programme of instructions; it is a unifying theme that gives coherence and direction to the actions and decisions of an individual or an organization. The principal task of this chapter is to introduce the notion of strategy, to make you aware of some of the key debates in strategy and to present the basic framework for strategy analysis that underlies this book.

  • Spartan Race Inc. Christopher Noe and Joseph Weber
    17-184 Revised August 9, 2018 Spartan Race Inc. Christopher Noe and Joseph Weber Over the seven years since its founding in 2010, Spartan Race grew to be the world’s most popular obstacle course race provider. In 2012 and 2016, the company raised a total of $15 million through two separate private equity investments.1 In 2017, however, Spartan Founder and CEO Joe De Sena was contemplating the possibility of an initial public offering. One question that he had was what impact, if any, the new accounting standard on revenue recognition would have on Spartan’s financial statements.2 Well aware of the importance of demonstrating robust prospects for revenue growth to investors, De Sena scheduled a meeting with Spartan’s Director of Financial Planning Andy Boudreau and Controller Zac Biesiada to discuss the matter further. Obstacle Course Racing Industry Unlike other extreme fitness activities such as marathons or triathlons, obstacle course racing (OCR) requires participants to navigate a series of obstacles such as rope climbs, log carries, monkey bars, mud crawls, and fire jumps. Experiencing a boom in popularity beginning around 2010, OCR has been called the fastest growing sport in history. In 2015, an estimated 4.5 million people in the United States finished an obstacle course race.3 This participation level, however, represented much smaller year- over-year growth than just a few years earlier, and some race organizers discontinued operations due to lack of demand.4 1 Spartan Race Inc.

  • The Legal Implications of Obstacle Racing and Suggested Risk Management Strategies
    Journal of Legal Aspects of Sport, 2014, 24, 78-95 Official Journal of SRLA http://dx.doi.org/10.1123/jlas.2014-0002 www.JLAS-Journal.com © 2014 Sport and Recreation Law Association CASE STUDY The Legal Implications of Obstacle Racing and Suggested Risk Management Strategies Margaret C. Keiper, Sarah Young, Gil Fried, and Todd Seidler This article applies legal theory, case law, and suggested risk management strategies to obstacle events and racing. The history, popularity, and exponential growth of the obstacle racing industry are explored. Trends in the obstacle racing industry are also examined and legal implications that may follow the trends are discussed. Case law, in a variety of scenarios, is used to explain and apply assumption of risk and duty of care to obstacle racing events. Finally, suggested risk management strategies for race organizers are recommended. Course design, medical staffing, waivers, and proper staff training are all discussed. Imagine spending your Saturday morning running up a muddy incline being sprayed from both sides with high-pressure fire hoses, then plunging into opaque, frigid water brimming with ice to slog your way 25–30 feet, and, finally, running through a trench of blazing kerosene-soaked straw with 4-foot high flames! This is a description of just a few of the obstacles that can be found in obstacle racing or challenge events currently sweeping the nation. Since 2010, it is estimated that more than 3 million people have competed in obstacle course racing which Outside Magazine speculated is more than twice the number of people finishing marathons during the same time span (Obstacle racing, 2013).
