Cognitive phenomena limiting individual skills
• Overemphasize tangible and obvious elements
• Disbelief in economic opportunities
• Risk aversion for compete with customers
• Fundamental attribution error (pushing people,
instead of setting up structures)
• Aggressive goals

China as an important aspect of service
orientation
• China today / future most important single market
• Contribution of services is very little
• Challenges
– Chinese culture (Guanxi, Mianzi, Renqin) hinders service
orientation
– Customers consider services as „free“ and add-ons
– Insufficient quality in the basics for earned a living
through services (spare parts logistics)
• Solutions:
– Adaptation of human resource management to cultural
characteristics
– State-of-the art logistics solution (bonded / non-bonded
warehouse) and logistic processes (temporary borrowing,
post-custom clearance)

Existing solutions
• Exporting parts (Europe>China)
• Stocking parts in China
• New solutions

– Adaptation of human resource
management to cultural

First summary
• Key challenges
• Cognitive phenomena limiting individual skills
• Management innovation drives service business development
• Balancing exploration and exploitation approaches
• Strategies for moving along with the exploitation approach
• Service differentiation as an integral part of customer centricity
and innovativeness
• Innovative solutions for Asian markets

Editor's Notes

  1. Ergänzung der Produktorientierung mit der Dienstleistungsorientierung als Ausweg aus der Beschränkung bisheriger produktorientierter Geschäftsmodelle. Weg zur Dienstleistungsorientierung verschiedene Entwicklungsstufen. Historisch – Dienstleistungswüste, Produktverkauf hiess noch Vertrieb und es ging eher darum Kunden ausreichend viele Produkte zur Verfügung zu stellen und Nachfrage zu befriedigen. Vertriebsfunktion zur Vertriebs/Service-Funktion gewandelt, Service-Funktion –ad-hoc unterstützung. Waschmaschinen läuft aus oder Fernseher ist kaputt. Dann Servicetechniker bezahlt man für Reparatur und Ersatzteile (Fixpreis oder variable ja nach Aufwand). Service-Funktion in Marktorganisation aktiv versucht Dienstleistungen zu verkaufen. Typisches Beispiel sind Serviceverträge für eine bestimmten Zeitraum 1 oder 2 Jahre, alle Servicetätigkeiten und Ersatzteile für einen bestimmten Festbetrag. Serviceveträge findet man heute auch teilweise bei Waschmaschinen (V-Zug), Werkzeugmaschinen). Weitere Ausbau hat jedoch ein Risiko, statt die Dienstleistungswüste in einen Dienstleistungsgarten zu verwandeln. Einen Garten der gut gepflegt ist und einen schönen Ertrag erwirtschaften, landen Sie im Dienstleistungsdschungel. Dienstleistungsdschungel heisst, die ausuferndes Dienstleistungsangebot, mangelnde Kostentransparenz, Kunden verlieren die Übersicht über das Dienstleistungsangebot und den –nutzen. Am Ende investieren sie in das Dienstleistungsgeschäfts, aber die erwarteten Return-on Investments in den Dienstleistungsbereich sind geringer als erwartet. Vermeidung des Dienstleistungsdschungels durch Professionelles und systematisches Dienstleistungsmanagement Service als strategisches Instrument und Wandel zu Performance-based Geschäftsmodellen oder pay-per-use. Beispiel Flugzeugturbine, GE & Rolls-Royce neue Turbinengeneration, günstiger im Unterhalt, und leichte Verbesserung der Leistung, niemand wollte aber die Turbine, Marktflop. Kurz vor dem Scheitern. Ausweg Power-by-the hour. Bezahlung nur für die Verfügbarkeit und die Nutzung der Turbine. Revolution der gesamten Wertschöpfungskette in der Luftfahrt. Boeing und Airbus umgangen, Konzept gemeinsam mit Fluggesellschaften, (Power-by-the-hour – Anstieg ins Finanzierungsgeschäfts für Flugzeuge, Boeing und Airbus erwirtschaften bis heute nur circa 2-3% der Umsatzes mit Dienstleistungen. Turbinenhersteller bis zu 50%. Solchen strategischen Erfolgen von Dienstleistungen stehen jedoch auch strategische Risiken gegenüber. Konsequenz solcher Risiken sehr gut bei Herstellern von Kopiergeräten und Druckern erkennbar. Bereich professionelle Drucker. Performance-based oder pay-per-use. Bezahlung pro Kopie oder gedruckte Seite. Dunkle Seite (Risiko/Gefahr) bei diesem Geschäftsmodell ist Verändertes Kundenverhalten und erzeugte Preistransparenz. Kunden erkennt kaum Qualitätsunterschiede. Gedruckte Seite HP = Xerox, Kopie von Canon = Sharp, kaum qualitative Unterschiede. Kunden erkennt nur, eine Seite 7 Rappen oder 6 Rappen. Kaufentscheid rein vom Preisabhängig. Kostenführerschaft als notwendige Erfolgsposition. Ruinöser Preiswettbewerb, fast keines der Unternehmen wirklich Profitabel war, Verlagerungen in Niedriglohnländer und Zusammenschlüsse. Eventuell Form erklären.
  2. R&D and innovation competencies Logistic & purchasing competencies Manufacturing competencies Assembly and production skills Understanding of customer’s technical, business, and operational needs Combination of product and services into customer-specific solutions Engineering competencies R&D and innovation competencies Logistic & purchasing competencies Manufacturing competencies Assembly and production skills Engineering competencies Recognizing and dealing with service opportunities and threats Service-oriented values and behavior Service-oriented personnel recruitment, development, and compensation Service-oriented organizational structures (e.g., separate business unit for services, service innovation processes) Exploiting the sensed opportunities and fending off threats Modifying operational capabilities Over the years and responding to some criticism of the approach (see especially Priem and Butler, 2001), the RBV was developed and enriched. It started to deal (once again) more explicitly with how a firm’s external environment is influencing the process of managing resources and how a firm’s resources are transformed into value. Sirmon et al. (2007) for example recently proposed a dynamic resource management model of value creation. Bingham and Eisenhardt (2008, p. 242) contributed to the RBV by arguing that “competitive advantage stems from both the characteristics of individual resources as497 well as the linkages among the resources”. Then they apply the VRIN criteria basically to the combinations of resources and especially see inimitability as the key criterion for gaining competitive advantage. Instead, dynamic capabilities or “the firm’s ability to integrate, build and reconfigure internal and external competencies to address rapidly changing environments” (Teece et al., 1997, p. 516) are seen as key and perceived as the cornerstone of competitive advantage. Dynamic capabilities (still following Teece et al., 1997, pp. 518-24) are based upon highly firm-specific managerial and organizational processes (or routines) and are shaped to a considerable degree by its specific asset position (current specif Teece has recently developed the dynamic capability framework considerably in another landmark study (2007 and included in 2009). Here, he more deliberately attempts to weave an “umbrella framework that highlights the most critical capabilities needed to sustain the evolutionary and entrepreneurial fitness of the business enterprise” (Teece, 2007, p. 1322). He proposes three categories of dynamic capabilities that he sees as most critical for sustaining evolutionary and entrepreneurial fitness [10], i.e. the capacity to sense and shape opportunities and threats, to seize opportunities and dynamic capabilities to maintain competitiveness through enhancing, combining, protecting and, when necessary reconfiguring the business enterprise’s intangible and tangible assets (Teece, 2007, p. 1319). “ the capability of an organization to perform a coordinated set of tasks utilizing organizational resources, for the purpose of achieving a particular end result”. They stress that “dynamic capabilities do not directly affect output for the firm in which they reside, but indirectly contribute to the output of the firm through an impact on operational capabilities”. Winter has formulated the basic difference between zero-level and higher order capabilities nicely. He refers to the first as “how we earn a living now capabilities” and in contrast, the others as “capabilities that would change the product, the production process, the scale, or the customers (markets) served” (p. 992).
  3. Model of attention and firm behavior to explain is not surprising that, having created a success- ful company by making a superior product, management continues to be oriented toward the product rather than the people who con- sume it. It develops the philosophy that contin- ued growth is a matter of continued product innovation and improvement. Because electronic products are highly complex and sophisticated, managements be- come top-heavy with engineers and scientists. This creates a selective bias in favor of research and production at the expense of marketing. The organization tends to view itself as making things rather than as satisfying customer needs. Marketing gets treated as a residual ac- tivity, “something else” that must be done once the vital job of product creation and produc- tion is completed. Engineers and scientists are at home in the world of concrete things like machines, test tubes, production lines, and even balance sheets. The abstractions to which they feel kindly are those that are testable or manipulat- able in the laboratory or, if not testable, then functional, such as Euclid’s axioms. In short, the managements of the new glamour-growth companies tend to favor business activities that lend themselves to careful study, experimenta- tion, and control—the hard, practical realities The latter occupy a stepchild status. They are recognized as exist- ing, as having to be taken care of, but not worth very much real thought or dedicated at- tention.
  4. Frequently executed Minimal causal ambiguity between action and outcome Moderate heterogeneity of tasks for executing the routines Executed only occasionally Minimal causal ambiguity between action and outcomes High heterogeneity of tasks for executing routines Executed continuously High causal ambiguity between actions and outcomes Low heterogeneity of tasks for executing routines

He proposes three categories of dynamic capabilities that he sees as most critical for sustaining evolutionary and entrepreneurial fitness [10], i.e. the capacity to sense and shape opportunities and threats, to seize opportunities and dynamic capabilities to maintain competitiveness through enhancing, combining, protecting and, when necessary reconfiguring the business enterprise’s intangible and tangible assets (Teece, 2007, p. 1319). “ the capability of an organization to perform a coordinated set of tasks utilizing organizational resources, for the purpose of achieving a particular end result”.

It started to deal (once again) more explicitly with how a firm’s external environment is influencing the process of managing resources and how a firm’s resources are transformed into value. Sirmon et al. (2007) for example recently proposed a dynamic resource management model of value creation. Bingham and Eisenhardt (2008, p. 242) contributed to the RBV by arguing that “competitive advantage stems from both the characteristics of individual resources as497 well as the linkages among the resources”. Then they apply the VRIN criteria basically to the combinations of resources and especially see inimitability as the key criterion for gaining competitive advantage. Instead, dynamic capabilities or “the firm’s ability to integrate, build and reconfigure internal and external competencies to address rapidly changing environments” (Teece et al., 1997, p. 516) are seen as key and perceived as the cornerstone of competitive advantage.

  13. Company failure is caused by the side effects of the SDL. I call it the dark side. Star wars – Darkvader or dark side becomes evident by considering innovators dilemma. Explains why big companies fail. It is about disruptive innovation / technology. Technology is business approaches. Disruptive business innovation. Causes to close to the customers. Now, let‘s consider the two of the holy ten premises of SDL. The customer is always the co-creator of value. Firms are resource integrators. Considering these fundamental premises, from the Innovators dilemma. Customers guiding R&D resources. SDL can create a strategic exposure to a disruptive change. SDL makes companies vulnarable for disruptive changes. Company Wetrok – SDL can create a strategic risk, empore of good-dominat firms can strike back. Don‘t get me wrong here-
