Week 2 Discussion Forum
Discuss the elements of strategic management and explain why it is crucial to an organization's survival. Excluding the examples from the textbook, give an example of a company that failed as a result of poor strategic management. Explain the difference between a strategy and a business model. Please discuss this in 200-250 words.
Strategic management is a strategy that provides direction for a company. Strategic management is a plan that includes situation analysis, strategy formulation, strategy implementation, and strategy evaluation. Situation analysis is how managers learn and understand what the company is capable of, along with the customers and the business environment. Strategy formulation is the process that is used to achieve the goals of the company. Strategy implementation puts the plan in motion, and strategy evaluation tests the effectiveness of an idea.
For a business to survive, the management team must be willing to grow the company to obtain new opportunities; without growth, a business will not be able to maintain longevity with a large amount of competition. The extension allows a business the ability to obtain assets, funds, and investments that will enable a push toward performance and profits.
Sears is a company that I believe that failed because of poor strategic management. Sears has been a household name for many years until new competition such as Walmart and Amazon, to name a few came on the scene. I don't believe Sears had a plan, strategy, or a goal of how-to compete because of their household name in the past. A business should always be assessing its strategy for success; if not, the industry could be left behind. Sears, in my hometown, never had any significant updates to the store or the merchandise to keep up with the competition. It seems to me that their strategy was just lower prices on already low-quality merchandise, excluding exercise equipment, appliances, and outdoor equipment.
All businesses, large and small, should have a strategy and a business model. A strategy is a plan of action that explains what the company will and will not do, how they plan to compete with the competition, and how they will execute the plan. The business model is how the company plans to make a profit; also, the business model identifies what the products and services are and who their target market is and any expenses. These two plans will aid in keeping a business moving in the right direction.

DECISION MAKING BY INDIVIDUALS AND GROUPS

3M’s Conundrum of Efficiency and Creativity
Well-known innovative companies, like Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing (3M), that are successful share at least four fundamental characteristics: (1) Putting people and ideas at the heart of the management philosophy. (2) Giving people opportunities and latitude to develop, try new things, and learn from their mistakes. (3) Building a strong sense of openness, trust, and community throughout the organization. (4) Facilitating the mobility of talent within the organization. 3M believes in the power of ideas and individual initiative; and recognizes that entrepreneurial behavior will continue to flourish only if management is willing to accept and even applaud well-intentioned failure. Innovation, the traditional hallmark of 3M’s business operations and success, is a process that thrives on multiple, diverse, independent and rapid experimentation, in a failure-tolerant environment that values and accommodates constructive conflict.
The creative and innovative orientation of 3M and in particular a tolerance for failure or defects or errors came under serious attack in late 2000. When former General Electric executive James McNerney took over as CEO of 3M in December 2000, he immediately began implementing Six Sigma. Management programs such as Six Sigma are designed to identify problems in work processes, and then use rigorous measurement to reduce variation, eliminate defects, and increase efficiency. When initiatives such as Six Sigma become embedded in a company’s culture, as they did at 3M, creativity and innovation can easily get squelched. In mid-2005, when McNerney departed 3M to take the CEO’s job at Boeing, he left his successors with the difficult question of whether the relentless emphasis on efficiency had made 3M a less creative company.

34. What’s the “Big problem” facing these
companies?
24/01/2013 34
39. The Role of the Strategist
• To find and examine all the evidence to
determine the problem
– It’s vital to be able to ask the right questions
– If you do not ask the right questions, then you
cannot find the right answer
• To design a solution
24/01/2013 39
41. Strategy at the Corporate Level
• A blurring of competitive position is clearly a
problem
• This causes rampant confusion internally and
externally
• So establish an unambiguous competitive
position
24/01/2013 41
42. Strategy at the Corporate Level
• Sources of problems
can be found when
examining:
1. The remote external
environment
2. The broad competitive
environment
3. Rivals
4. The market
5. The company
24/01/2013 42
43. The Strategy Detective’s Tools:
The External Environment
The External
• PEST or PESTEL analysis
Remote • Political, Economic, Social, Technological
Environment
The Broad • Porter’s Industry Analysis Five Forces Model
Competitive • Industry Life Cycle
• Company analysis (see section on internal analysis)
Environment
• Market Segmentation
The Market • Customer Relationships
• Product Life Cycle
24/01/2013 43
44. The Strategy Detective’s Tools:
The Internal Environment
•Core competencies;
The Internal
•Porter’s Value Chain;
Environment Functional Analysis;
BCG Matrix; Ansoff’s
Matrix
24/01/2013 44
46. What is a Strategist?
• A decision-maker?
– Look at options and pick ‘the best’
• Or a designer?
• Yes, he/she designs a novel response
24/01/2013 46
47. The Strategy Designer
• You are allowed only one objective and it must be
feasible
• What one single feasible objective, when
accomplished, would make the biggest
difference?
• Now design a strategy and make it happen.
24/01/2013 47
48. Leadership Casualties in 2012
• How many CEOs of US Fortune 500 companies
were fired in 2012?
• How many coaches/managers in the NBA,
NFL, English Premier League were sacked?
• How many incumbent politicians were
defeated in the polls?
• Clearly employers believe that strategy and
leadership are interconnected
24/01/2013 48
49. Meaning-Maker “strategy has been narrowed to a
competitive game plan, divorcing it
from a firm's larger sense of
purpose; the CEO's unique role as
arbiter and steward of strategy has
been eclipsed; and the exaggerated
emphasis on sustainable competitive
advantage has drawn attention away
from the fact that strategy must be a
dynamic tool for guiding the
development of a company over
The time” (Montgomery, HBR, 2008)

50. • If you ask young men what they want to accomplish by the time
they are 40, the answers you get fall into two distinct categories.
There are those - the great majority - who will respond in terms of
what they want to have. This is especially true of graduate students
of business administration. There are some men, however, who will
answer in terms of the kind of men they hope to be. These are the
only ones who have a clear idea of where they are going. The same
is true of companies. For far too many companies, what little
thinking goes on about the future is done primarily in money terms.
There is nothing wrong with financial planning. Most companies
should do more of it. But there is a basic fallacy in confusing a
financial plan with thinking about the kind of company you want
yours to become. It is like saying, "When I'm 40, I'm going to be
rich." It leaves too many basic questions unanswered. Rich in what
way? Rich doing what?
24/01/2013 50
51. • Strategy and the Strategist In most popular
portrayals the strategist's job would seem to be
finished once a carefully articulated strategy has
been made ready for implementation. The idea
has been formed, the next steps specified, the
problem solved. But don't be fooled. The job of
the strategist never ends. No matter how
compelling a strategy is, or how clearly defined, it
is unlikely to be a sufficient guide for a firm that
aspires to a long and prosperous life
24/01/2013 51
52. The Prevailing Approach: Strategy as a Set Solution
• Goal A long-term sustainable competitive
advantage
• Leadership The CEO and strategy consultants
• Form Unchanging plan that derives from an
analytical, left-brain exercise
• Time Frame Intense period of formulation
followed by prolonged period of implementation
• Ongoing Activity Defending an established
strategy through time
24/01/2013 52
53. What Is Missing: Strategy as a Dynamic Process
• Goal Creation of value
• Leadership CEO as chief strategist; the job cannot
be outsourced
• Form Organic process that is adaptive, holistic,
and open-ended
• Time Frame Everyday, continuous, unending
• Ongoing Activity Fostering competitive
advantages and developing the company through
time
24/01/2013 53
57. Social CRM
• “The underlying principle for Social CRM’s
success is very different from its
predecessor….traditional CRM is based on an
internal operational approach to manage
customer relationships effectively. But Social CRM
is based on the ability of a company to meet the
personal agendas of [its] customers while, at the
same time, meeting the objectives of [its] own
business plan. It is aimed at customer
engagement rather than customer
management.”
24/01/2013 57
58. Where is my company along the Social Business Journey?
24/01/2013 58
63. Genuine Strategy and OE
Both are essential for superior performance
Excellence in one is not enough for enduring
success or competitive advantage
24/01/2013 63
64. Establishing Organizational
Competitive Advantage
• Deliver greater value to customers; or
1
• Create comparable value at lower
2 prices; or
• Do both
3
24/01/2013 64
65. Creating Competitive Advantage:
Effectiveness vs Efficient
• Leads to greater value
More • Higher unit prices
Effective • Apple, BMW
• Leads to Lower unit costs
More • Can offer lowest prices
Efficient • Costco, Lenovo
24/01/2013 65
66. OE and Buyers
• Continuous improvements in OE proves of
enormous benefits to buyers;
– Today we can buy a USB stick at Walmart for less than
$5 that has more memory than a computer that cost
$000s in the 1980s;
• But this is a nightmare scenario for companies
that are sucked into damaging price wars;
– Who makes a profit selling only PCs today?
24/01/2013 66
67. Examples of Strategically Smart
The Smarts The Laggards
• Tend to be ‘different’ • Imitate and emulate their
• Are innovative national rivals
24/01/2013 67
68. OE and Competition
• Companies converge
• They all follow the exact same strategic path
– From made-in-China to sold-in-Walmart
• And this is a race that no producer wins
– So let’s reduce the number of ‘runners’ – and
acquire our rivals
• In a ‘buy or be bought’ world, no one enjoys
true competitive advantage
24/01/2013 68
69. It does not
have to be
this way!
24/01/2013 69
