In Only the Paranoid Survive, Andy Grove explains his strategy for handling what he calls "strategic inflection points". A strategic inflection point can be triggered by many things: intense competition, a change in regulations, or a minor change in technology. When a strategic inflection point occurs, the current ways of running your business no longer work. Yet, managed well, a strategic inflection point can be turned to your advantage and your business can emerge stronger than ever.
