Artificial intelligence: Stitch fix case study

the Blue Ocean framework which has quickly emerged as a key tool in the analysis of strategy and innovation in the last decade. It presents the four$-$actions framework which is a central piece of conceptual thought that can help analyze the differentiation potential of a company$$s offerings, and its projected ability to gain premium value. We will apply these concepts to analyze the case study on StitchFix.

Case study questions

$1).$ Katrina Lake $($K$-$L$)$ struggled to raise money for her venture and secured only $$42$ million while a competitor secured $$2$ billion. What factors might explain the difference? What could she have done differently to address the gaps?

$2).$ K$-$L looked at three different industries to create her business model $($retial$,$ personal stylists, subscription services$).$ What were the salient attributes she drew from each segment? Applying a Blue Ocean framework, how would you characterize her actions $($use the Four Actions Framework$)?$

$3).$ If you look at the industry configuration at the end of the case, what do you think the future might hold for Stitch Fix? What changes would you recommend that K$-$L consider as she navigates the company strategy?
