History of the human civilization is full of stories related to dynasties, kingdoms, nations and corporations. These stories describe great conquests as well as tragic downfall.

Many kingdoms started their ascent as a small tribe only to rule over vast swathes of land in a short span of time. Similarly, many empires were once considered formidable. These kingdoms presided over armies that were thought to be invincible.

However, adversaries soon obliterated these empires. Palaces and monuments that were once symbols of grandeur for these monarchies were eventually razed to the ground. History pages will recall with graphic detail about how these monarchies were annihilated.

Legends of ascent and downfall applies to companies as well. Many corporate leaders enter the market with their own set of strategies, resources and goals.

However, only a few contenders become the top contenders in a game after some time. Other companies either go bankrupt or they exist on fringes of the market waiting to be acquired by a giant competitor.

What determines the eventual outcome for nations or companies? Which factor determines whether these countries or organizations soar to great heights or whether they land in an abyss?
