Angels

Blue Ocean Strategy Glossary - Angels

Angels are those within a company who have the most to gain from the execution of a new strategy. They are the ones who will support you in the execution of your Blue Ocean Strategy. You need to identify angels early on, and build a coalition of them around you. Having a coalition of angels around you protects you from your adversaries, because attacking you would mean attacking your coalition. See Political Hurdles.
