False

16. Since the 1980s, the basis for competition has shifted from intangible resources to hard assets False

17. The new CEO of Opacity Enterprises is determined to make the long-established firm strategically
flexible. The CEO should understand that the task is not easy, largely because of inertia that can build up

model.
