Planning to update this page (and related ones) - looking for editors to partner with
[edit]Hello folks,
As written on the Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Business page, I noticed the Boston Consulting Group entry is rated as C-Class on the project's quality scale.
I would like to invest some time over the next few days to improve that entry, and the Bruce_Henderson and Growth-share_matrix which go with it naturally.
I'd appreciate the partnership of any willing editor to ensure that any updates conform to Wikipedia's high standards!

First major update
[edit]Completed a first major overhaul. Restructured stub completely into a full article. Added a long list of verifiable sources.
Some questions:
- Do corporate "offices" use the general office holder infobox? (I've used it here, but I haven't seen it in general for executives)
- Does this structure work for a biography of an executive/entrepreneur, or is there a better one? (if so, which?)
Welcoming any further input and discussion on this page!
UPCOMING TO-DO:
- Expand section "Founding and leadership of The Boston Consulting Group (BCG)"
- Expand section "Personality and style"
- Add further content to the various ideas — Preceding unsigned comment added by Filippo Scognamiglio (talk • contribs) 07:16, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
- Expand section on early life and education (if I can dig up a few reliable sources)
- Cascade changes/edits and update other relevant pages, maybe create a few pages for other major ideas?

Question on date of "Origin of Strategy"
[edit]It appears that Henderson wrote a version of the "Original of Strategy" 8 years earlier than is listed in the article: https://www.bcgperspectives.com/content/Classics/strategy_concept_of_strategy/. The highlighted quote about competition beginning when life began is verbatim in this 1981 piece of his. Thought it was worth pointing out.
