Defining the
Corporate Mission
To define the corporate mission, a company
should address Peter Drucker’s classic
questions:
• What is our business?
• Who is the customer?
• What is of value to the customer?
• What will our business be?
• What should our business be?
Defining the
Corporate Mission
• Business Definition
– Product Oriented Vs Market
Oriented (Table 2.2)
• Mission Statement
– Five Major Characteristics (Page
63)
Establishing
SBUs
• Large companies have multiple
Strategic Business Units (SBUs)
• An SBU has three characteristics:
– It is a single business, or a collection of
related businesses, that can be planned
separately from the rest of the company.
– It has its own set of competitors.
– It has a manager responsible for strategic
planning and profit performance, who
controls most of the factors affecting profit.
Assigning Resources to
Each SBU
Once it has defined SBUs, the management
must decide how to allocated
corporate resources to each.

Formulation
• Once the company has performed a
SWOT Analysis, it can proceed to goal
formulation.
• Goals are objectives that are specific
with respect to magnitude and time.
• These objectives must meet four criteria:

possible
