5 Rules for Multiplying Value Through Alliances

What if the single biggest lever for creating value in your business wasn't actually in your business at all? What if it was an alliance forged with another company? The inspiration for this topic came from an episode of the Acquired podcast, which took a deep dive into the Formula One motor racing business. F1 isn’t just a sport: it's a compelling case study in how to create value through alliances. This is a transformation story about turning a highly-fragmented, amateurish pastime for European elites into a $60bn global juggernaut. In this episode, I'll show you exactly how that happened; I’ll take you behind the scenes of one of the most valuable alliances I was part of during my own corporate career; and I’ll distil these examples to draw out 5 rules for multiplying value through alliances.
