Competition has, since the 90s, led to wider gaps between industry leaders and laggards. There are more "winner-take-all" environments and greater churns among industry sector rivals. We have witnessed sharp increases in quality and quantity of IT (Information Technology) investments. We've seen striking competitive dynamics, particularly in sectors that spend the most on IT. Some of the competitive dynamics models include the Destroy Your Business (DYB) strategy, the Grow Your Business (GYB) strategy, the Information Systems (IS) and strategic advantage, and the social business strategy.
Write a four to five (5-6) page paper in which you:
Compare and contrast the DYB and GYB strategies in terms of the ability to sustain a business in the marketplace over the long term, to be competitive against rivals, and profitability.

Determine whether or not changes in business strategy should entail reassessment of IS. Provide three (3) reasons to support your position.
