What is Strategy? To achieve superiors profitability and value to customers Competition is about a relative advantage and is dependent on differentiation Operational effectiveness is essential but is not a replacement for strategy Defination A business plan is a formal statement of a set of business goals, the reasons why they are believed attainable, and the plan for reaching those goals. It may also contain background information about the organization or team attempting to reach those goals. For-profit business plans typically focus on financial goals, such as profit or creation of wealth. Business plans may be internally or externally focused. Externally focused plans target goals that are important to external stakeholders, particularly financial stakeholders. They typically have detailed information about the organization or team attempting to reach the goals Internally focused business plans target intermediate goals required to reach the external goals. They may cover the development of a new product, a new service, a new IT system, a restructuring of finance, the refurbishing of a factory or a restructuring of the organization. An internal business plan is often developed in conjunction with a balanced scorecard or a list of critical success factors Business plans that identify and target internal goals, but provide only general guidance on how they will be met are called strategic plans. Defination Strategic planning is an organization's process of defining its strategy, or direction, and making decisions on allocating its resources to pursue this strategy, including its capital and people. Various business analysis techniques can be used in strategic planning, including SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats ) and PEST analysis (Political, Economic, Social, and Technological analysis) or STEER analysis (Socio-cultural, Technological, Economic, Ecological, and Regulatory factors) and EPISTEL (Environment, Political, Informatic, Social, Technological, Economic and Legal). Strategic planning is the formal consideration of an organization's future course. All strategic planning deals with at least one of three key questions: "What do we do?" "For whom do we do it?" "How do we excel?“ In business strategic planning, the third question is better phrased "How can we beat or avoid competition?". Our point of differentiation What is Strategic Thinking?

Vision is a long term aim, a view of how the organization would like the world in which it operates to be. Mission: Defines the fundamental purpose of an organization or an enterprise, basically describing why it exists. A corporate Mission can last for many years, or for the life of the organization. It is not an objective with a timeline, but rather the overall goal that is accomplished over the years as objectives are achieved that are aligned with the corporate mission. Values: Beliefs that are shared among the stakeholders of an organization. Values drive an organization's culture and priorities. Planning Tip Values include the stated values and the “real values”. Real values can be described as “what really happens here” . The “real values” unless understood can impact a businesses ability to implement its plan Vision, Mission, Values Walt Disney Example Purpose To make people happy Core Values No cynicism Nurturing and promulgation of “wholesome” American values Creativity, dreams and imagination Fanatical attention to consistency and detail Preservation and control of the Disney magic Mission Disney’s overriding objective is to create shareholder value by continuing to be the world’s premiere entertainment company from a creative strategic and financial standpoint.

Up market project home builder Sustainable Competitive Advantage DEFINITION: The point of difference or winning edge that will enable you to beat others in the same business. Defination Competitive advantage is, in very basic words, a position a firm occupies against its competitors. According to Michael Porter, the three methods for creating a sustainable competitive advantage are through: 1. Cost leadership - Cost advantage occurs when a firm delivers the same services as its competitors but at a lower cost; [1] 2. Differentiation - Differentiation advantage occurs when a firm delivers greater services for the same price of its competitors. They are collectively known as positional advantages because they denote the firm's position in its industry as a leader in either superior services or cost; [2] 3. Focus (economics) - A focused approach requires the firm to concentrate on a narrow, exclusive competitive segment (market niche), hoping to achieve a local rather than industry wide competitive advantage. There are cost focus seekers, who aim to obtain a local cost advantage over competition and differentiation focuser, who are looking for a local difference. [3] Many forms of competitive advantage cannot be sustained indefinitely because the promise of economic rents invites competitors to duplicate the competitive advantage held by any one firm. A firm possesses a sustainable competitive advantage when its value-creating processes and position have not been able to be duplicated or imitated by other firms, [4]. Sustainable competitive advantage results, according to the resource-based view theory in the creation of above-normal (or supranormal) rents in the long run.. The primary factors of competitive advantage are innovation, reputation and relationships. Competitive advantage occurs when a organization acquires or develops an attribute or combination of attributes that allows it to outperform its competitors. These attributes can include access to natural resources, such as high grade ores or inexpensive power, or access to highly trained and skilled personnel human resources.

If I had to pick it I would say that the positioning is a mixture of Variety and Access-based positioning. It is broadly targeted in that it ignores the more idiosyncratic needs of particular customer groups. (The Model T Ford of air travel!)

Critical Issues: Critical issues are issues identified that will impact a businesses ability to implement its strategy. These issues cover all areas/processes of the business plus culture, politics, customers, suppliers. In a business planning context they all need to be addressed for the following reasons 1. 2. 3. They are interlinked: Interconnectivity is a concept that can be summarized as that all parts of a system interact with and rely on one another simply by the fact that they occupy the same system, and that a system is difficult or sometimes impossible to analyze through its individual parts considered alone. Prioritisation: Once all the critical issues have been identified and in the “How” part of the business plan we describe how to address them i.e.. critical issue (CI)>strategy to address CI > Action Plan > Who > When > How Much > Measures > Links to other CI’s, we can then determine the priority Determining the critical issues allows one to address resourcing and budgetary issues i.e. We do not have enough recourses or money to address all the CI , which ones go first, how do we sequence Determining critical issues Step 1: Take the issues list compiled from management and staff questionnaires and list in category/process i.e. Management, marketing etc Review the list of issues in each category to determine critical issues – remember there will be several issues that are similar that identify an issue/theme identified by several people through the questionnaire What are the critical issues and how do we determine them?

But the description of strategy should not be an art. If people can describe strategy in a more disciplined way, they will increase the likelihood of its successful implementation.” Kaplan & Norton Definition From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Balanced Scorecard (BSC) is a strategic performance management tool for measuring whether the smaller-scale operational activities of a company are aligned with its larger-scale objectives in terms of vision and strategy. By focusing not only on financial outcomes but also on the operational, marketing and developmental inputs to these, the Balanced Scorecard helps provide a more comprehensive view of a business, which in turn helps organizations act in their best long-term interests. Organizations were encouraged to measure, in addition to financial outputs, those factors which influenced the financial outputs. For example, process performance, market share / penetration, long term learning and skills development, and so on. The underlying rationale is that organizations cannot directly influence financial outcomes, as these are "lag" measures, and that the use of financial measures alone to inform the strategic control of the firm is unwise. Organizations should instead also measure those areas where direct management intervention is possible. In so doing, the early versions of the Balanced Scorecard helped organizations achieve a degree of "balance" in selection of performance measures. In practice, early Scorecards achieved this balance by encouraging managers to select measures from three additional categories or perspectives: "Customer," "Internal Business Processes" and "Learning and Growth.“ Strategy Maps: measures are selected based on a set of "strategic objectives" plotted on a "strategic linkage model" or "strategy map With this modified approach, the strategic objectives are distributed across the four measurement perspectives, so as to "connect the dots" to form a visual presentation of strategy and measures. To develop a strategy map, managers select a few strategic objectives within each of the perspectives, and then define the cause-effect chain among these objectives by drawing links between them. A balanced scorecard of strategic performance measures is then derived directly from the strategic objectives. This type of approach provides greater contextual justification for the measures chosen, and is generally easier for managers to work through.

Core processes represent core business. They do not have to cover 100% of all things the business does. The management team should nominate core processes. A single person should not be tasked with the job. The processes need to be defined at levels high enough so that major improvements are visible to everyone in the organisation or unit. Identifying Core Processes - Guidelines (continued) They should be recognisable as the platform around which strategy is developed. They should capture the major workflows, which result in something very quantifiable being offered to the customer. These workflows typically involve more than one function. There should be minimum overlap between the core processes. The skills, technologies and sub-processes should be substantially different for each. Identifying Core Processes - Guidelines (continued) It should be clear that measures of quantity, quality, cost, revenue, and time, applied to these processes would form the backbone of the organisation's performance measurement system. It should be clear that all strategic contact points with the customer are covered. Vagueness should be avoided. For example Manage the Business seems to say it all, but is at too high a cognitive level to work with. Elevating a small process to core status puts it under the spotlight at management reviews. Forces it to be resourced and managed.
