Welcome to IBOSI Research
The research journey of IBOSI has evolved from the blue ocean to nondisruptive creation – creation without disruption. Just as the blue ocean theory redefines the essence of strategy as creating, not competing, the theory of nondisruptive creation redefines and expands the existing view of innovation beyond disruption. The research outputs of the INSEAD Blue Ocean Strategy Institute are driven by these theories.
They include international bestselling books, leading academic articles and blogs, a growing body of award-winning and bestselling cases across the globe, development of teaching modules for half-day, full-day and multi-day executive and MBA classes, theory-based movies, and annual top-attended global webinars on the blue ocean family of concepts in collaboration with the Case Centre.
Recognized as one of the most iconic and impactful strategy books ever written, Blue Ocean Strategy argues that cutthroat competition results in nothing but a bloody red ocean of rivals fighting over a shrinking profit pool.
Embraced by organizations and industries worldwide, Blue Ocean Strategy is a global phenomenon that has sold over 4 million copies, is published in a record-breaking 49 languages, and is a bestseller across 5 continents. Now in its 20th anniversary edition, it is enhanced with a new preface that highlights its evolving impact in the age of AI, in-depth case studies on NVIDIA and Taylor Swift, and a roster of bestselling blue ocean cases across diverse industries that expand far beyond those in the original version.

– Jake Cohen, Senior Associate Dean at the MIT Sloan School of Management
Blue Ocean Leadership was created by world-renowned professors Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne. The same way that blue ocean strategy can create uncontested market space, blue ocean leadership can unleash the ocean of untapped talent and employee potential in organizations.
Unlike most research in the field of leadership that has largely drawn on psychology and cognitive science, blue ocean leadership looks to the field of strategy to inform the practice of leadership in business.
WHAT IS BLUE OCEAN LEADERSHIP?
Blue Ocean Leadership provides a systematic way to unlock the ocean of unrealized talent and energy in your organization fast and at low cost. It achieves this while conserving leaders’ most precious resource: TIME.
Blue Ocean Leadership in essence, can be thought of as a service that people in an organization either ‘BUY’ or ‘DON’T BUY’.
