    Hello Ken,

    Good evening, May I know how to differentiate between Ballast business and Value trap business in the Ashridge Model? Thank you so much.

    Besides that, Ken may I ask how will the question would likely to ask, on the external relationship section (network organization, hollow organisation structure, virtual organisation…)? Because I can’t think of the way they might ask.

    And can I know what constitutes dynamic and what constitutes complex? I feel so complex right now.

    Thank you Ken.

    Ashridge is extensively explained in the notes and lectures.

    Networks etc, likely to be combined in some way with outsourcing/sib-contracting because this is what these structures really make use of.

    Dynamic = changes often: complex = complex!

    The tax system is a good example.
