5. 13-5 Establishing Strategic Controls Strategic control is concerned with tracking a strategy as it is being implemented, detecting problems or changes in its underlying premises, and making necessary adjustments Characterized as a form of “steering control”

6. 13-6 Four Types of Strategic Control

7. 13-7 Premise Control Premise control is designed to check systematically and continuously whether the premises on which the strategy is based are still valid Environmental factors Industry factors

8. 13-8 Strategic Surveillance Strategic surveillance is designed to monitor a broad range of events inside and outside the firm that are likely to affect the course of its strategy Strategic surveillance must be kept as unfocused as possible Despite its looseness, strategic surveillance provides an ongoing, broad-based vigilance in all daily operations

9. 13-9 Special Alert Control A special alert control is the thorough, and often rapid, reconsideration of the firm’s strategy because of a sudden, unexpected event A drastic event should trigger an immediate and intense reassessment of the firm’s strategy and its current strategic situation Crisis teams Contingency plans

10. 13-10 Implementation Control Strategy implementation takes place as series of steps, programs, investments, and moves that occur over an extended time Implementation control is designed to assess whether the overall strategy should be changed in light of the results associated with the incremental actions that implement the overall strategy –Monitoring strategic thrusts –Milestone reviews

11. 13-11 Balanced Scorecard Methodology An alternative approach linking operational and strategic control, developed by Harvard Business School professors Robert Kaplan and David Norton, is a system they names the balanced scorecard The balanced scorecard is a management system (not only a measurement system) that enables companies to clarify their strategies, translate them into action, and provide meaningful feedback

12. 13-12 Integrating Shareholder Value and Organizational Activities across Organizational Levels

13. 13-13 Balanced Scorecard Four perspectives: 1.The learning and growth perspective: How well are we continuously improving and creating value? 2.The business process perspective: What are our core competencies and areas of operational excellence? 3.The customer perspective: How satisfied are our customers? 4.The financial perspective: How are we doing for our shareholders?

14. 13-14 Innovation Invention is the creation of new products or processes through the development of new knowledge or from new combinations of existing knowledge Innovation is the initial commercialization of invention by producing and selling a new product, service, or process –Product innovation –Service innovation –Process innovation

15. 13-15 Incremental Innovation Incremental innovation refers to simple changes or adjustments in existing products, services, or processes Continuous improvement, what in Japanese is called kaizen, is the process of relentlessly trying to find ways to improve and enhance a company’s products and processes from design through assembly, sales, and service

16. 13-16 Incremental Innovation Toyota’s CCC21: construction of cost competitiveness for the 21st century Six Sigma is a rigorous and analytical approach to quality and continuous improvement with an objective to improve profits through defect reduction, yield improvement, improved consumer satisfaction, and best-in-class performance

17. 13-17 The DMAIC Six Sigma Approach

18. 13-18 10 Essential Elements that Lead to Incremental Innovation 1.Define quality and customer value 2.Develop a customer orientation 3.Focus on the company’s business processes 4.Develop customer and supplier partnerships 5.Take a preventive approach 6.Adopt an error-free attitude 7.Get the facts first 8.Encourage every manager and employee to participate 9.Create an atmosphere of total involvement 10.Strive for continuous improvement

19. 13-19 Breakthrough Innovation A breakthrough innovation is an innovation in a product, process, technology, or the cost associated with it that represents a quantum leap forward in one or more of those ways Breakthrough approaches to innovation are inherently more risky than incremental innovation approaches

20. 13-20 From Idea to Profitable Reality

21. 13-21 Risks Associated with Innovation Innovation involves creating something that doesn’t now exist Long odds for success Market risk Technology risk

22. 13-22 Idea Factors Need spotting Solution spotting Mental inventions Random events Market research Trend following

23. 13-23 Risks Associated with Innovation

24. 13-24 Treacy’s Useful Points about Managing Risks The point of innovation is growth Get the most from the minimum innovation Incremental product innovations can lock in existing customers Incremental business process innovations can generate more revenue gain or cost savings with less risk than radical ones Radical innovations are often too radical The time to launch breakthrough innovations is when they are essential to the marketplace

25. 13-25 Ways to Lower Risk Product teams Cross-functional groups Joint ventures Cooperation with lead users “Do it yourself” innovation Acquiring innovation Outsourcing innovation
