Domino is a small rectangular block made of wood or another rigid material used as a gaming object. Also referred to as bones, cards, men, or pieces, dominoes (also referred to as bones) have one blank or patterned side and an identity-bearing side with up to six dots or spots for identification purposes. A standard domino set contains 28 tiles; larger sets may exist for games involving more players or complex layouts. Dominos may be used in various forms such as blocking games, scoring games, and layout games among others.
Western games feature simple block-and-draw games for two to four players that involve placing dominoes on a table in lines or patterns, using tiles from a boneyard stock, called boneyard tiles. Once each turn has begun, each player draws seven tiles from the boneyard stock before trying to lay down a domino with an equivalent value on it that corresponds with one already on board – with the first player who successfully does so winning the game.
There have been an endless number of variations on these simple games, creating endless combinations and strategic planning possibilities. A specialized type of dominoes designed to be easily identifiable with their pips numbered in Arabic numerals was also developed; these make them harder to be confused with traditional dominoes; some people even use these exclusively when playing games that require skill and strategic thinking.
As Domino’s has expanded, it has evolved with changing consumer tastes. For instance, they began offering vegetarian and salad bar options to attract more customers, and have developed technology allowing customers to place orders via smartphones or devices such as Amazon Echo – increasing market share and profits of the company in turn.
Every product, team, organization and individual goes through an evolution from conception to growth and decline. While some individuals may get stuck in an unhealthy cycle of inertia and stagnation, others realize change is essential in staying competitive and innovative.
Domino’s senior executives understood that to remain competitive in today’s marketplace, their business needed to become more innovative and change how it operated. Alongside creating a new delivery app, they also invested in training their employees and meeting with them directly to understand what their wants were from the company – this allowed them to formulate more efficient strategies and achieve unparalleled results. Domino’s anticipates continued success by diversifying its products and expanding to new markets to maintain their current position as global leaders, without becoming vulnerable to competitors. If this can be accomplished, it will provide ongoing success not only to their customers but also employees relying on it for steady incomes.
