Creating Strategy
7
Planning Execution
8
Market Insight
  • Clarity on the market environment/context for the
    proposed solution. We must be explicit in
  • defining the target customer
  • identifying the business need/driver
  • determining if there is available budget
  • assessing the competitive landscape
  • specifying the nature of the proposed solution
    and the derived benefits associated with its
    delivery
  • prescribing the time horizon within which the
    business opportunity will be realised.

9
Strategic Intent
  • Armed with an understanding of the market
    opportunity we can define
  • which portion of the market we seek to address
  • what message we seek to deliver internally and
    externally
  • what our business will look like in 1, 3 or 5
    years (depending on the time horizon for
    opportunity)
  • relationship to broader BT and GS strategies.

10
Business Model
  • For our chosen market and the strategic portion
    we have identified we must then give
    justification to the way in which BT will make
    money. Specifically we should define
  • how and when the client will be billed and how
    they should pay BT
  • what benefits need to be realised for the client
    to be prepared to pay
  • BTs internal and external (eg supplier) costs
    are
  • What investments are required in development,
    service infrastructure, sales, marketing etc
  • The growth predictions (together with any
    assumptions, areas of risk and demonstration of
    how the revenue/margin growth is linked to growth
    in cost base)
  • which BT LOBs will enjoy the revenue/margin.

11
Innovation
  • Typically most new propositions will demand some
    form of innovation. This innovation may come in
    various forms (supply chain, process, software
    development, consulting) regardless of which
    domain we should be specific in defining
  • whether there is opportunity for asset re-use
    from within BTs existing portfolio (or
    demonstrate that there is no suitable existing
    asset)
  • define the nature and timescale of the required
    innovation
  • assess likely risks to the innovation
  • identify the likely owner of the innovation
    component of the proposition
  • identify any unique skills/insight required to
    execute the innovation.

12
Organisation
  • Having identified the market opportunity and the
    target market BT seeks to capture (together with
    the business model and required innovation), we
    are now in a position to explore what
    organisational changes are required to execute in
    the market. We should therefore define
  • skills required to address the market
    opportunity
  • critical dependencies on other parts of BT (eg
    horizontal practice group)
  • the long-term product owner
  • key stakeholders inside and outside BT
  • organisation changes required to be successful.

13
Metrics
  • To be successful we must encourage the right type
    of new behaviours to meet the demands of the new
    proposition. This requires that we
  • Identify the critical success factors for the
    proposition
  • Prescribe appropriate milestones for the emerging
    business
  • Give clarity over what new/modified metrics are
    required in the LOBs
  • Demonstrate how the metrics are linked to the
    time-horizon for the new proposition (and by
    doing this avoid prematurely applying revenue
    targets for H2-H3 business opportunities).

14
Process
  • To be successful we must define and agree what
    new processes are required to service the
    creation and support of a new proposition.
    Specifically this will entail
  • Creating mechanisms for checking progress against
    the CSFs and milestones
  • Defining how the proposition development will be
    managed
  • indicating we will work with the GS process to
    pull down investment funds
  • outlining the approach we will adopt when we have
    to take/give an asset or proposition to another
    part of BT (handover of software, document,
    service support etc)
  • defining we will undertake communications to the
    stakeholders (what will need to be communicated
    and when)
  • suggesting how we will undertake follow-up with
    initial customer set to determine impact of
    solution and derived benefits.

15
Culture
  • We need to be clear in describing what new
    behaviour is required of BT employees to make the
    new proposition successful. Specifically, we
    should undertake to have
  • personal commitments from LOB execs that they
    will evangelise the proposition to their teams
    and their managers with appropriate metrics and
    milestones
  • reviews with key stakeholders in which
    stakeholders own key deliverables/actions.
  • quality time with the stakeholders (breakfast
    meetings are ideal for this) educating them on
    the requirements for their support on the 8 key
    components to the new proposition (Market
    Insight, Strategic Intent, Business Design, etc).
  • agreement on the nature time horizons for the
    propositions metrics.

Q. How can you recognise the pattern of a good
potential strategy and business design?
A. By seeing lots of examples, by understanding
mistakes others have made, by recognising
business issues, by seeing good and bad decisions
played out, knowing failures and successes from
many other businesses.

Our biggest wow! John Deere Landscapes
Example from How to Grow When Markets Dont
Adrian Slywotzky and Richard Wise

25
John Deere
  • Suppliers of agricultural equipment (e.g.
    tractors, combined harvester)
  • Founded in 1837
  • In 1999, had revenues of 9.7bn and profits of
    239m
  • Majority of sales were to farms and farmers.
    However, 25 of sales are in the green industry
    (to gardeners and home owners) from their
    Commercial and Consumer Equipment division
  • John Deere Credit provides credit for the
    purchase of John Deere equipment
  • John Deere Healthcare provides health insurance
    services to John Deere and other companies

26
Business challenge
  • What problems are they facing what do they have
    to overcome?
  • Performance tied to the cyclical agricultural
    economy.
  • Market largely stagnant or declining leaving no
    prospect of long term growth
  • Cyclical industries put a focus on cost and are
    unwilling to pay a premium for quality - margin
    squeeze is inevitable
  • How did they recognise the problem?
  • Cyclical profits
  • No growth even after aggressive cost cutting and
    efficiency programmes
  • How did they approach addressing the problem?
  • Looked for value opportunities up and down their
    value chain and in adjacent markets an 18 month
    process

27
Strategy - Issues/challenges/changes
  • Green industry is higher margin than agriculture
  • Total green industry market is 100bn compared to
    20bn for green equipment supply
  • Fragmentation of distribution channels between
    suppliers and contractors allows an integrated
    distributor to remove inefficiencies in the value
    chain
  • Many green jobs never got completed due to lack
    of client funds
  • Create an integrated distribution channel serving
    the entire green industry market
  • Provide financing arrangements that can be
    offered to customers clients
  • To become the leading integrated supplier to
    green industry contractors in the US
  • Brand lowers the cost of customer acquisition
    compared to competitors
  • Integrated marketing will reduce costs
  • Extending credit to customers clients would
    allow them to take on larger jobs, increasing
    their revenue
  • Provide training and design support to customers

28
Execution - Issues/challenges/changes
  • Create a separate organisation with its own
    process and metrics
  • Use separate outlets. Do not reuse the existing
    dealer network
  • Acquire regional distributors to accelerate
    growth in the market and gain expertise
  • Focus on saving overhead costs
  • No metrics on Deere performance (and vice versa)
  • Different market needs its own culture, therefore
    the organisation needs to be isolated from Deere
    and have its own control
  • Organisation should be Opaque to Deere to avoid
    upsetting existing business
  • Uses John Deere processes where appropriate, but
    have processes where these are more appropriate

29
Business outcome
  • What did they do in the end?
  • Created JDL as a distributor of green industry
    products to green industry contractors as a
    separate organisation (2000)
  • Acquired McGinnis Farms (2000) and Richton
    International (2001)
  • Created a credit financing package through John
    Deere Credit for JDL customers to offer to
    clients (2002)
  • What difference did it make?
  • JDL is the leading distributor in the green
    industry in the US in its 12 target states
  • JDL is starting to generate pull-through business
    to John Deere itself
  • How have they been successful?
  • In 2005, John Deere had revenues of 21.9bn
    (9.7bn in 1999) and profits of 1.45bn (239m in
    1999) - 225 growth in revenue and 605 growth in
    profits
  • JDL is meeting its profitability and ROI targets
  • What are the remaining issues/concerns?
  • Many stores still need to be updated after the
    take over of Richton International
  • What lessons can be taken from this?
  • Customers will only give a company money if they
    increase their revenues or remove inefficiencies
    in their processes.
  • What is the cash value of a brand and where is in
    the value chain is it realised?
  • New markets require new organisations with their
    own metrics, processes and culture

Greeley Hard Copy, Portable Scanner - A
  • You are Phil Faraci and your challenge is
  • to figure out, with the help of Oman, the
    portable team, and the flatbed managers, how to
    make it all work
  • Where appropriate analyse the situation by asking
    yourselves the questions in the 8 focus areas
  • Recommend what to do
  • 3 slides max
  • 1 slide on diagnosing state of current business

  • Findings

36
Greeley Hard Copy, Portable Scanner - A
  • Target customer group not well defined and what
    focus they have keeps changing
  • Given that the other 3 are changing there is no
    hope that BD is clear
  • SI is changing over time and nobody has realised
    what is their ambition for portable scanning
    technology???
  • Technology base is not fixed

37
Execution
  • Ownership of opportunity changing
  • Movement of execs destabilising development
  • GHC judged on H1 which does notencourage H2-3
    investment
  • Too strong tech focus (RD knows best)
  • Over-reliance on consensus style
  • No clear process for approval

38
Recommendations
  • Organisation give portable scanner initiative a
    dedicated team reporting directly to Faraci with
    a clear exec owner, investment budget, mandate
    and metrics that are distinct from those in
    flatbed team. Do NOT create independent division
    unless it is as part of a group of strategic
    investments/growth initiatives.
  • Metrics measure/reward exec owner and team on
  • confirming/finalising Market Insight, Strategic
    Intent and Business Design with intent on product
    development
  • Development and launch of product.
  • Culture/Organisation establish approach for
    managing expectations on nascent Portable
    Scanning business including target market,
    strategy, timing, revenue.

  • Findings

65
Charlotte Beers at Ogilvy Mather Wordwide - A
  • Target business well defined multinational corp
    accounts with brand stewardship issues
  • Cost structures need addressing
  • Clearly stated To be the agency most valued by
    those who most value brands (etc)
  • USP associated with LOCAL interpretation of
    agreed GLOBAL brand stewardship

Summary.actually, at this point they arent too
bad herebut
66
Execution
  • Retraining/education on BrandPrints needed at
    regional/local level
  • Worked examples required for internal confidence
  • Over-reliance on small team of execs
  • Read the vision again how is this translated
    into organisation??? Not yet achieved and needs
    fixing.
  • Exec compensation not aligned with brand focus
    and over-emphasis on regional/country bonus
    needs to be changed to reflect new business focus
  • All incentives need to reflect local-central
    interaction/collaboration
  • Lack of challenges to each other/current
    activities
  • Culture of non-confrontation and low expectations
    needs to be addressed actively challenge
    mediocre behaviour (including customers)
  • Process of vision creation not well defined
  • Process to support global business structures and
    finance/cost management

67
Recommendations
  • Metrics
  • WCS and regional executives to be compensated on
    brand stewardship activities
  • Local offices to be compensated for collaboration
    in WW initiatives
  • Milestones for adoption/achievement in Brand
    Stewardship needs to be defined at Global and
    Local levels this will provide basis for
    showing how the vision is being realised

Charlotte Beers - Update
  • WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The mastermind of U.S. public
    diplomacy efforts in the wake of the terrorist
    attacks of September 11, 2001, resigned from her
    State Department post Monday.
  • Charlotte Beers, a former top advertising
    executive who joined the department shortly after
    September 11, is leaving shortly "for health
    reasons," Secretary of State Colin Powell said in
    a written statement.
  • Another U.S. official told CNN her departure was
    connected to problems she encountered in the job.

Beers, 67, took office to spearhead a public
diplomacy campaign aimed at winning the hearts
and minds of the Muslim world. But she attracted
little praise for her efforts, and was attacked
in the media, by various think tanks and by
members of Congress. U.S. officials also
complained privately that though Beers spent a
lot of money on slickly produced media ads, she
did not understand her target audience
Muslim-majority countries where anti-American
sentiment runs high. "She was failing," the
official said. "She didn't do anything that
worked." Beers, whose title was undersecretary
of state for public diplomacy, acknowledged to a
Senate committee Thursday that her task was
daunting, The Associated Press reported. "The
gap between who we are and how we wish to be
seen, and how we are in fact seen, is
frighteningly wide," Beers told a Senate Foreign
Relations Committee hearing. Beers' "Shared
Values" campaign -- television ads portraying
American Muslims in their daily life -- was
criticized in the few countries it was
introduced. The series was eventually suspended
when several Arab countries refused to broadcast
the ads.
