21 Is Setting Goals & Objectives Really Important? Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here? said Alice. That depends a good deal on where you want to get to, said the Cheshire cat. I don t much care where. said Alice. Then it doesn t matter which way you go, said the cat. - Lewis Carroll s Alice in Wonderland Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3-21

24 Step 7: Formulate Strategies Three basic strategies: Cost Leadership Strategy? Differentiation Focus Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3-24
25 FIGURE 3.4 Three Strategic Options Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3-25
26 Cost Leadership n Goal: to be the low-cost producer in the industry (or market segment). n Low-cost leaders have advantages: n Reaching buyers who buy on the basis of price n The power to set the industry s price floor. Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3-26
27 Cost Leadership n Cost Leadership works well when: n Buyers are sensitive to price changes. n Competing firms sell the same commodity products. n A company can benefit from economies of scale. n Example: Anytime Fitness Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3-27
28 Differentiation n Company seeks to build customer loyalty by positioning its goods or services in a unique or different fashion. n Idea is to be special at something customers value. n Key: Build basis for differentiation on a distinctive competence, something that the small company is uniquely good at doing in comparison to its competitors. n Examples: Vosges-Haut Chocolate, Ice Hotel, and Indigenous Designs Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3-28
29 Focus n Company selects one or more customer segments in a market, identifies customers special needs, wants, or interests, and then targets them with a product or service designed specifically for them. n Strategy builds on the differences among market segments. n Rather than try to serve the total market, the company focuses on serving a niche (or several niches) within that market. n Example: American Plume and Fancy Feather Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3-29
30 Step 8: Translate Strategies into Action Plans n Survey of senior executives: Companies achieved only 63% of the results in their strategic plans. n Create projects by defining: n Purpose n Scope n Contribution n Resource requirements n Timing Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

32 Balanced Scorecards n A set of measurements unique to a company that includes both financial and operational measures n Gives managers a quick, yet comprehensive, picture of a company s overall performance. Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3-32
33 Balanced Scorecards Five Perspectives: 1. Customer: How do customers see us? 2. Internal Business: At what must we excel? 3. Innovation and Learning: Can we continue to improve and create value? 4. Financial: How do we look to shareholders? 5. Corporate Citizenship: Do we meet our responsibility to society as a whole, the environment, the community, and other external stakeholders? Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3-33
34 Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3-34
35 Conclusion The strategic planning process: n Begins with the nine steps. n Becomes more efficient each time. n Teaches entrepreneurial discipline for a higher chance of survival. Copyright 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3-35
