  3. What is Strategy?

  4. What is GSM Analysis?

  5. The Concept of Strategymakes use of 5 broad categories of information • Structure • Culture • Environment • Resources and capabilities (relative to the competition) • Strategic focus J. Bower

  6. What is strategy ? Strategy is associated with - being skillful in 2 thinking worlds: • “World of Business” - WOB • Think on behalf of the organisation • “We” v. Other organisations • Skillful interaction to improve position • How can we improve the situation ? • “World of Management - WOM • Making it happen (organisation is a whole system of people) • No longer “ABC Co”, but: • 100’s of individuals with different motivation, now need to influence behaviour

  7. The MOC school of thought WOM Internal Bottom-up strategy Organisational dialogue Motivational Aim = Goal achievement Process The Strategy school of thought WOB External Top-down strategy Rational reasoning Cognitive Aim = Gain high ground Context/analysis Two perspectives, two worldviews

  8. Fast structures Learns Absorbs shocks Discontinuous Innovation/revolution Proposes Gets all the attention Slow structures Remembers Integrates shocks Continuous Constraints/constancy Disposes Has all the power Learning and Continuity

  9. Purpose of strategy:Achieving convergence Understanding the Business Environment (Scenarios) Understanding the Organisation (Business Idea) Is this the right company for these future environments ? Multiple plausible futures System of distinctive competencies If not: Address competencies If so: Address business choices

  10. The Principle of “Making Money”Rent model of the organisation Total system optimisation Buyer’s value system The offering Seller’s Distinctive Competencies Value

  11. Reconceptualising Business Boundaries From: Company System Inputs Products To: Company Competencies + Customer Value System Inputs Customer Value

  12. Economics: scarcity and added value • LIMITED RESOURCES • UNBOUNDED WANTS • LIMITED RESOURCES + UNBOUNDED WANTS => SCARCITY • SCARCITY => CHOICE => OPPORTUNITY COST • APPLICATIONS: • Individual choice: paid employment vs leisure vs education • National economy: health vs education vs defence vs ....... • Use of managerial time: specialise or do everything? • Introduction of new models by a car manufacturer • IT IS ALL ABOUT TRADE-OFFS R1

  13. The concept of value Criterion of business success: added value (AV) AV = value of outputs less value of inputs AV = VQ - VI R1

  14. What is value ? • Suppliers: seek to sell a good when the price exceeds the costs of its inputs. • Consumers: seek to purchase when their subjective valuation of it exceeds its asking price. • A transaction will take place when both parties benefit from it. • Note two sources of value here: • to consumers (consumers' surplus) • to producers (producers surplus = rent = economic profit = firms' added value) R1

  15. More on added value Added value appropriated by the firm (economic profit) = Value appropriated by the firm as sales revenue (R) less costs of inputs employed (C) C = cost of materials and semi-manufactured inputs + cost of labour + capital costs R1

  16. Added value for three companies R1

  17. Alternative measures of “profit” • net output = revenue - materials costs • operating profit = net output - wages and salaries • added value = operating profit - capital costs • AV is a complete measure of economic profit as it subtracts all input costs (VI) from revenue (VQ). • BEWARE: A potential source of error - confusion of the terms added value and value added R1

  18. Calculating added value R1

  19. Specialisation and value R1

  20. Specialisation and value OTHER BENEFITS OF SPECIALISATION • Learning effects • Scale effects. IMPLICATIONS FOR BUSINESS • FOCUS • CORE ACTIVITIES • STICK TO THE KNITTING • OUTSOURCING SO WHY DO WE HAVE? • DIVERSIFICATION R1
