Case study spaceX

Due Date: 11:59 pm EST Sunday of Unit 4

Points: 100

In this assignment, you will review Case Study #12: SpaceX. This case describes Elon

Musk’s unique approach to strategy when creating SpaceX. Think about the types of

strategies from chapters 5 and 6 that Elon Musk utilized.

Instructions:

You will need to review the case study in your textbook, then answer the following

questions utilizing topics covered in previous chapters.

influence the kinds of decisions he made in creating the firm?

• Thinking about Musk’s prior experiences, capabilities, and motives, what do you

think are his strengths and weaknesses in creating SpaceX?

• What did SpaceX do differently from other space companies?

• Discuss whether you believe the incumbent space companies will adopt

elements of SpaceX’s model (be specific about which). Do you think the

incumbents will survive? Do you believe Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin is a significant

threat?
