STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM


Changing Success Factors
Successful
organizations must
continually change
themselves, against
internal and external
factors. Otherwise,
these companies may
have to put an end to its
activities, or may be
managed by other
successful companies.

STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM


Having a Strategy Roadmap
Strategy is a management's game plan
for strengthening the performance of
the enterprise.
Strategy states how company should
achieve the desired goals.
Without strategy, management has no
roadmap to guide employees.
Creating business strategies is a core
management function.
STRATEGIC PLANNING with NLP

There are 4 seasons in your organization’s lifespan.

STRATEGIC PLANNING with NLP


Winter
Winter is a bleak time. The ground
lies frozen, the earth unproductive.
The trees are bare and seem
lifeless. Cold paralyzes. Snow and
ice slow us down, hem us in and
cover our potential for growth. But
it can be alive with dreaming.
Visions arise from the red hot glow
of the fireplace. Conversations are
lively.
This is the time for anticipating the
coming year’s harvest season.
Goals are set. Plans are made.
Growth is anticipated all with an
attitude of celebration and
expectation.
Spring
Spring is the time for definitive
action – for saying, ”if a harvest is
to be, it’s up to me!”
Spring is where the action is.
Hibernation ends. Flowers bud.
The ice melts. Rivers flow again.
Birds take wing and build nests.
The soil thaws. Seeds take root.
The winter’s plans give impetus to
self-reliance, self-motivation and
enthusiastic activity.
It is the time for gathering the
best seeds, preparing the best
soil, and planting ideas, energy
and enthusiasm into a new crop.

STRATEGIC PLANNING with NLP


Summer
Summer is the continual,
regular cultivation,
watering and fertilization.
It is the time of great
growth.
It is the season for
feedback, progress
reports and midcourse
corrections.

It is the time for renewal of commitment,


perseverance, and cultivation of new skills, and
knowledge that appear needed through the actual
doing.
It is the season for intense, concentrated, focused
effort.
Fall

Fall is the time for reaping the rewards of success!


It is the season for enjoying the fullness of life – partaking of
the harvest, sharing the harvest with others, and reinvesting
and saving portions of the harvest for yet another season of
growth.
Autumn is the time for feeling a sense of accomplishment, for
recognizing that life must be enjoyed as it is lived.

expect to invest the most … that
is the fundamental rule of
strategy.“

Competitive Positioning
To be a superior performer, the company
must have a SUSTAINABLE COMPETITIVE
ADVANTAGE that competitors can not copy
Or improve faster than competitors can catch
up

Main Strategic Options


Competitive superiority
Product & market -related strategies
Synergy-related strategies
Integration strategies

STRATEGIC PLANNING with NLP


A. Competitive Superiority
DIFFERENTIATION
To mark the company off from its competitors as far as possible, The first aim
is to achieve optimal customer satisfaction requirements, so customer
orientation is closely bound up with differentiation.
The main feature of differentiation strategies is that forces are concentrated on
market-oriented strategies and include development of any of the ff:
quality
product range
image
advice to customers
sales
distribution
innovation

COSTS
Mainly towards achieving favorable unit costs (for example by concentrating on
cost reduction as a strategic excellent position (SEP).
A. Competitive Superiority
COMBINATION OF DIFFERENTIATION
& COST REDUCTION
To aim for both maximum differentiation and optimal unit costs.

TIMING
Focuses on timing factors, Here the company concentrates on creating
structures that will enable optimal movement over time.
May include developing
• Ability to develop products rapidly and introduce them to the market
• Quickly copying competitors’ innovations
• ‘Flexibility’ (ability to adjust rapidly to changes in environmental
conditions)

STRATEGIC PLANNING with NLP


B. Product & Market -related Strategies
Product Development
Develop new products/services when existing markets
do not offer adequate opportunities
New products
New services
New systems and solutions to problems
Diversification
Directions which take the business away from its core
competency
Offering new products for new markets is generally
considered very costly and a high-risk strategy

STRATEGIC PLANNING with NLP


C. Synergy-related strategies
Materials oriented strategies
Based on offering all the product from the same material, the key
is to build on the processing of the material.

Technology oriented strategies


Based on offering all the products (generally for different groups of
customers) that can be produced in the same plant (eg by drop-forging,
injection)

Market oriented Strategies


Offering every product required by a specific group of customers.
The key is to build on knowing all the requirements of a specific
group of customers, perhaps working in cooperation with some of
them.

STRATEGIC PLANNING with NLP


D. Other Strategies
Hybrid Strategies
Provide value-added value while keeping
prices down
Joint Ventures, Joint Development and
Strategic Alliances
Alliance of complementary or
supplementary separate entities which help
overcome high cost of entry into markets
alone

STRATEGIC PLANNING with NLP


E. Other Strategies
Differentiation across value chains and
along linkages
Seek linkages between different parts of
the value chain Diversification
Internal Development
Development of original technology
Mergers & Acquisitions
Allows very fast entry into markets

Representing a problem on the Duncker
