It serves as a roadmap for achieving long-term goals by making deliberate choices about what to pursue and what to forego. Strategic management involves planning, executing, and adapting these strategies to sustain competitive advantage over time. Michael Porter distinguishes strategy from operational effectiveness, emphasizing that while operational effectiveness is about performing activities better than competitors, strategy is about choosing a unique position and creating value through a tailored set of activities【20†source】. Key Elements of Strategy 1. Internal Resources and Capabilities: o Organizations must understand and optimize their strengths while addressing weaknesses. Examples include core competencies, skilled personnel, and financial resources【18†source】. 2. External Environment: o Organizations operate in dynamic markets. Identifying opportunities (e.g., technological advancements) and mitigating threats (e.g., new competitors) is central to crafting a sustainable strategy【18†source】【21†source】. 3. Trade-offs and Choices: o Strategy requires deciding what not to do. For example, IKEA avoids offering pre- assembled furniture to align with its cost-leadership strategy【20†source】. Importance of Strategic Awareness Strategic awareness involves recognizing the interplay between an organization’s internal capabilities and its external environment. Key aspects include: Strengths and Weaknesses: Identifying internal factors that influence performance, such as operational efficiencies or skill gaps. Opportunities and Threats: Monitoring market trends, competitor actions, and macroeconomic shifts【18†source】. 7 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation Proactive Adaptation: Staying ahead of competitors by anticipating changes and responding effectively【18†source】. Strategic Thinking Strategic thinking integrates an understanding of past performance, current capabilities, and future aspirations. It requires: Analysis: Assessing the organization’s history and current position. Forecasting: Projecting future trends and positioning the organization to capitalize on them. Innovative Problem-Solving: Identifying new opportunities and addressing challenges creatively【18†source】. Practical Examples and Case Studies 1. Blockbuster vs. Netflix: o Blockbuster failed to adapt to changing market dynamics, such as the shift to digital streaming. In contrast, Netflix’s strategy of innovation and customer convenience allowed it to dominate the market【18†source】. 2. Salling Group’s Strategic Differentiation: o Bilka focuses on cost leadership and broad product offerings, Føtex emphasizes premium in-store experiences, and Netto targets price-sensitive customers. These strategies demonstrate tailored approaches to different customer segments【 19†source】. Reflection Points What distinguishes successful strategies from those that fail? How do trade-offs enable organizations to create and sustain competitive advantage? Why is strategic awareness essential in today’s rapidly changing business environment【 20†source】? Conclusion Defining strategy and strategic management is fundamental to understanding how organizations achieve long-term success. By aligning internal resources with external opportunities, making deliberate trade-offs, and maintaining strategic awareness, businesses can sustain competitive advantage and adapt to changing environments. These foundational concepts set the stage for exploring more specific frameworks and strategies in subsequent topics. 8 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation Topic 2: Levels of Strategy Introduction to Levels of Strategy Understanding the levels of strategy helps organizations structure their strategic approach effectively. Strategies operate at three interconnected levels: 1. Corporate Strategy: o Focus: The overall scope and direction of the organization. o Key Questions: ▪ What industries or markets should the organization compete in? ▪ How can diversification or integration create value? o Example: Salling Group’s focus on diverse retail chains (Bilka, Føtex, Netto, BR, etc.) to serve different market segments【19†source】. 2. Competitive Strategy: o Focus: Achieving competitive advantage in specific markets or business units. o Key Questions: ▪ Which customer segments should be targeted? ▪ What is the unique value proposition for those customers? o Frameworks: Porter’s cost leadership and differentiation strategies【20†source】. 3. Functional Strategy: o Focus: Aligning specific functions (e.g., marketing, operations, finance) to support competitive and corporate strategies. o Key Questions: ▪ How should resources be allocated within specific functions? ▪ What innovations or efficiencies can be introduced? o Example: Bilka’s focus on supply chain efficiencies to support its cost-leadership strategy【19†source】. Corporate Strategy in Detail Corporate strategy defines the organization’s overall mission and vision, determining which markets to enter and how to allocate resources across business units. Key elements include: Diversification: Expanding into new markets or products to reduce risk and leverage synergies. Vertical Integration: Controlling upstream or downstream activities in the value chain. Portfolio Management: Balancing high-growth opportunities with stable income sources【 19†source】. 9 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation Competitive Strategy in Detail Competitive strategy focuses on building a distinct market position. Michael Porter’s framework highlights two main approaches: 1. Cost Leadership: o Offering products or services at the lowest cost in the industry. o Example: Netto’s lean supply chain and no-frills store layout【19†source】. 2. Differentiation: o Creating unique products or services that justify premium pricing. o Example: Føtex’s focus on premium quality and customer experience【19†source】. Functional Strategy in Detail Functional strategies operationalize corporate and competitive strategies within specific departments: Marketing: Building brand recognition and aligning messaging with strategic goals. Operations: Streamlining processes to enhance efficiency or product quality. Finance: Allocating budgets and managing risks to support strategic initiatives. Human Resources: Recruiting and retaining talent that aligns with strategic objectives【 19†source】【21†source】. Reflection Points How do corporate, competitive, and functional strategies interact to create cohesive organizational success? What challenges arise in aligning strategies across different levels? How can organizations ensure that functional strategies support higher-level goals【 21†source】? Conclusion The three levels of strategy—corporate, competitive, and functional—form an interconnected framework that enables organizations to operate effectively in complex markets. By aligning these levels, companies can achieve strategic coherence and sustained success. 10 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation Topic 3: Strategic Frameworks and Tools Introduction to Strategic Frameworks Strategic frameworks and tools provide structured approaches to analyzing, formulating, and implementing strategies. These frameworks help organizations assess their position, identify opportunities, and devise actionable plans. Key frameworks include: 1. SWOT Analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats): o Purpose: To evaluate internal and external factors impacting the organization. o Application: Helps organizations identify areas for growth and risk mitigation. 2. PESTEL Analysis (Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Environmental, Legal): o Purpose: To assess macro-environmental factors influencing strategy. o Application: Provides insights into external conditions that shape industry dynamics. 3. Porter’s Five Forces: o Purpose: To analyze industry competition and profitability potential. o Application: Identifies competitive pressures from buyers, suppliers, substitutes, new entrants, and rivalry. 4. BCG Matrix (Boston Consulting Group Matrix): o Purpose: To evaluate business units or product lines based on market growth and market share. o Application: Guides resource allocation and portfolio management. SWOT Analysis in Detail SWOT analysis is a foundational tool for strategy formulation, enabling organizations to identify: Strengths: Internal capabilities that provide a competitive edge (e.g., strong brand, skilled workforce). Weaknesses: Internal limitations that hinder performance (e.g., outdated technology, high turnover). Opportunities: External factors the organization can capitalize on (e.g., emerging markets, technological advances). Threats: External challenges that could impact success (e.g., regulatory changes, new competitors). Example Application: A tech company identifying its strong R&D capabilities (strength) and high dependency on one market (weakness) while exploring opportunities in AI (opportunity) and addressing the threat of cybersecurity risks (threat). 11 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation PESTEL Analysis in Detail PESTEL analysis examines external factors that influence an organization’s strategy: Political: Government policies, trade regulations, and stability. Economic: Market trends, inflation, and exchange rates. Social: Cultural trends, demographics, and consumer behavior. Technological: Innovations, R&D, and technology adoption. Environmental: Sustainability, climate change, and ecological concerns. Legal: Compliance, intellectual property laws, and regulatory frameworks. Example Application: A renewable energy company assessing regulatory incentives (political), declining solar panel costs (economic), and rising consumer demand for green energy (social). Porter’s Five Forces in Detail Porter’s Five Forces framework provides insights into industry competition and profitability potential by examining: 1. Threat of New Entrants: o Barriers to entry such as high capital requirements or strong brand loyalty. o Example: The airline industry has high barriers due to regulatory requirements and capital-intensive operations. 2. Bargaining Power of Suppliers: o The influence suppliers have on pricing and quality. o Example: Tech companies rely heavily on semiconductor suppliers, giving suppliers significant bargaining power. 3. Bargaining Power of Buyers: o The influence of customers on pricing and product offerings. o Example: Retail customers can demand lower prices in highly competitive markets. 4. Threat of Substitutes: o The availability of alternative products or services. o Example: Streaming services like Netflix are substitutes for traditional cable TV. 5. Industry Rivalry: o The intensity of competition among existing players. o Example: The smartphone industry experiences intense rivalry, with frequent product innovations and marketing wars. 12 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation Reflection Points How do strategic frameworks complement each other in providing a comprehensive analysis? What role do frameworks play in addressing uncertainty and complexity in strategic planning? How can organizations use these tools to identify and mitigate risks while seizing opportunities? Conclusion Strategic frameworks and tools are indispensable in crafting effective strategies. By leveraging frameworks like SWOT, PESTEL, Porter’s Five Forces, and the BCG Matrix, organizations can systematically analyze their environment and develop strategies that drive competitive advantage. These tools set the foundation for data-driven and adaptive strategic decision-making. Topic 4: Value Creation and Business Models Introduction to Value Creation and Business Models Value creation lies at the heart of business strategy, reflecting how organizations deliver value to customers, stakeholders, and shareholders. A business model, in turn, defines the structure through which this value is created, delivered, and captured. Key components include: 1. Customer Segments: o Identifying the specific groups of people or organizations the business aims to serve. 2. Value Proposition: o Defining the unique benefits or solutions provided to customers. 3. Channels: o Outlining the ways in which the organization delivers its value proposition. 4. Revenue Streams: o Determining how the business generates income. 5.

Lecture 2: Strategic Analysis Tools Resource-Based View (RBV) of the Firm The Resource-Based View (RBV) is a strategic framework emphasizing a firm's internal resources as key drivers of sustained competitive advantage. Unlike tools like PESTEL or Porter’s Five Forces, which focus on external factors, RBV examines how unique assets and capabilities within the organization shape performance and competitive positioning. Key Concepts of RBV 1. Firm Resources: 16 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation oDefined as tangible and intangible assets, capabilities, and processes under a firm’s control. o Examples: ▪ Physical Resources: Factories, patents, proprietary technology. ▪ Human Resources: Employee skills, expertise, leadership. ▪ Organizational Resources: Culture, brand equity, decision-making systems. 2. Sustained Competitive Advantage: o Achieved when a firm consistently outperforms competitors by leveraging resources that are difficult to replicate or substitute. o Critical to maintaining market leadership and long-term profitability. VRIN Framework The VRIN framework evaluates whether a firm’s resources can deliver sustained competitive advantage. To qualify, resources must be: 1. Valuable: o Resources must enable the firm to exploit opportunities or neutralize threats. o Example: Tesla’s advanced battery technology helps meet sustainability demands while lowering costs. 2. Rare: o Resources should be scarce among competitors to confer a competitive edge. o Example: Apple’s ecosystem (iOS, App Store) is a rare integration of hardware and software. 3. Inimitable: o Resources should be difficult to replicate due to unique history, social complexity, or tacit knowledge. o Example: Coca-Cola’s brand identity, rooted in decades of marketing and cultural presence. 4. Non-Substitutable: o No alternative resource should deliver the same strategic value. o Example: Amazon’s vast logistics network is critical to its unmatched delivery speeds. Sources of Inimitability For a resource to be inimitable, competitors must find it exceedingly difficult to replicate due to specific barriers. These barriers include: 1. Unique Historical Conditions: o Some resources are deeply tied to a firm’s unique history and cannot be recreated by others. 17 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation oExample: A company that pioneered a technology or established early market leadership, like Intel in semiconductors, benefits from historical advantages. o Path Dependency: Decisions and resources accumulated over time that shape a firm’s current capabilities. 2. Causal Ambiguity: o The relationship between a resource and its performance is unclear or complex, making it difficult for competitors to replicate. o Example: Southwest Airlines’ culture of efficiency and employee engagement contributes to its success, but competitors struggle to identify the exact mechanisms that drive its advantage. 3. Social Complexity: o Resources embedded in interpersonal relationships, organizational culture, or networks are hard to imitate. o Example: A firm’s collaborative culture or strong supplier relationships, such as Toyota’s lean manufacturing network. o Social Capital: Trust, norms, and networks within and outside the organization that enhance performance. 4. Economic Deterrence: o Resources requiring high costs to replicate discourage competitors from attempting duplication. o Example: Amazon’s extensive distribution network was built over decades with massive investment, making replication economically prohibitive. Strategic Implications of Inimitability 1. Sustainability: o Firms must focus on resources that are difficult to imitate to maintain their competitive edge over time. 2. Investment in Barriers: o Strengthen social capital, build trust-based networks, and maintain secrecy around proprietary processes. 3. Focus on Culture and Systems: o Foster an organizational culture that aligns with long-term goals and is challenging for competitors to replicate. 4. Resource Renewal: o Ensure inimitable resources remain relevant through continuous improvement and adaptation to market dynamics. Case Study: Coca-Cola 1. Unique Historical Conditions: 18 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation oCoca-Cola’s brand originated over 125 years ago, deeply embedding it in global culture. 2. Causal Ambiguity: o Its exact brand loyalty mechanism, advertising effectiveness, and distribution network are intertwined, making them hard to replicate. 3. Social Complexity: o Long-standing relationships with bottlers and distributors worldwide form a unique network that competitors struggle to match. 4. Economic Deterrence: o Its global reach and marketing expenditure create significant entry barriers for competitors. Strategic Applications of Inimitability 1. Building Resilient Networks: o Develop robust supplier and customer relationships that enhance social complexity. o Example: Starbucks’ close partnerships with coffee farmers ensure exclusive access to premium beans while supporting local communities. 2. Leveraging Organizational Culture: o Cultivate a strong and unique culture that aligns with strategic goals. o Example: Google’s culture of innovation fosters employee creativity, resulting in continuous product advancements. 3. Investing in High Barriers to Entry: o Create economic deterrents by scaling operations and deploying capital-intensive technologies. o Example: Tesla’s Gigafactories exemplify significant capital investments that discourage competitors. 4. Enhancing Tacit Knowledge: o Develop expertise that is deeply embedded in employees and processes. o Example: Rolex’s watchmaking craftsmanship is a result of generational knowledge transfer, ensuring superior quality. Practical Exercise Objective: Analyze the sources of inimitability for a firm’s resources. 1. Choose a resource (e.g., brand equity, technology, culture). 2. Identify which barriers (unique history, causal ambiguity, social complexity, economic deterrence) make it inimitable. 3. Propose strategies to protect and enhance these barriers. 19 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation Reflection Points How can firms identify and strengthen the sources of inimitability in their resources? What role does organizational culture play in maintaining competitive advantages? How can firms leverage social complexity as a barrier to imitation? What strategies ensure the continued relevance of inimitable resources in dynamic markets? Conclusion Inimitability is a cornerstone of sustained competitive advantage. By understanding and enhancing the barriers to imitation, firms can secure their unique position in the market. Investing in historical strengths, fostering ambiguity, leveraging social capital, and adapting to changing conditions are critical strategies for long-term success. 20 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation Theme 2 - Value Creation and Business Models Lecture 3 Topic 1: Introduction to Value Creation Value creation is a fundamental concept in business strategy, encompassing how organizations deliver benefits to customers, stakeholders, and society. The understanding of value has evolved over time, moving from a goods-centric perspective to a more dynamic, service-oriented approach. Goods-Dominant Logic (GDL) 1. Definition: o Focuses on "Value-in-Exchange," where value is embedded in goods or services and realized during transactions. o Producer-centric: Firms create value, and customers consume it. 2. Key Characteristics: o Value Creation Process: ▪ Firms embed value into goods or services through production. ▪ Value is measured by the price customers are willing to pay. o Role of Customers: ▪ Passive participants who "use up" or "destroy" value created by firms. o Examples: ▪ Selling a product (e.g., a car) where the exchange of money for goods signifies the value realization【147†source】. 3. Implications: o Simplicity in value measurement (monetary exchange). o Limited consideration for post-purchase use or customer interactions. Service-Dominant Logic (SDL) 1. Definition: o Emphasizes "Value-in-Use," where value is co-created by producers and consumers during the use of a good or service. o Recognizes the reciprocal relationship between firms and customers【147†source】. 2. Key Characteristics: o Value Creation Process: ▪ Value emerges through interactions between producers and consumers. 21 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation ▪ Goods act as vehicles for delivering services. o Role of Customers: ▪ Active participants who integrate resources and contribute to value creation. o Examples: ▪ Renting a car: Value is realized when the customer drives and uses the vehicle. 3. Implications: o Firms propose value through offerings, but customers determine the value through use. o Greater emphasis on ongoing customer relationships and experiences. Comparison of GDL and SDL Aspect Goods-Dominant Logic Service-Dominant Logic Value Driver Value-in-Exchange Value-in-Use Creator of Value Firm Firm and Customer Process of Creation Embedded in goods Co-created during use Measurement Monetary price Adaptability, utility, satisfaction Role of Goods End product Tool for service delivery Customer Role Passive consumer Active co-creator Strategic Implications of SDL 1. Customer-Centric Design: o Businesses must align offerings with customer needs and expectations. o Example: Tesla’s over-the-air software updates enhance car functionality post- purchase. 2. Emphasis on Relationships: o Firms must focus on long-term engagement rather than one-time transactions. o Example: Netflix’s subscription model builds ongoing value through personalized content. 3. Resource Integration: o Firms should enable customers to combine their resources with firm-provided resources effectively. o Example: DIY furniture companies like IKEA empower customers to assemble products, enhancing their perceived value. 22 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation Reflection Points How does shifting from GDL to SDL change a firm’s approach to value creation? What challenges do firms face when implementing SDL principles? How can customer feedback and interaction be leveraged to enhance co-creation? Conclusion The transition from Goods-Dominant Logic to Service-Dominant Logic represents a significant evolution in how businesses understand and deliver value. By focusing on value-in-use and involving customers as active participants, firms can create more meaningful and sustainable value propositions. Topic 2: Three Value Configurations Organizations create value through different configurations, depending on their goals, processes, and customer interactions. These configurations—Value Chain, Value Shop, and Value Network— highlight distinct approaches to delivering value. 1. Value Chain 1. Definition: o Developed by Michael Porter, the value chain transforms inputs into outputs through a series of interlinked activities. o Focuses on product-centric businesses that deliver value by optimizing production and distribution processes【147†source】. 2. Primary Activities: o Inbound Logistics: Receiving, storing, and distributing inputs. o Operations: Transforming inputs into final products. o Outbound Logistics: Delivering products to customers. o Marketing and Sales: Promoting and selling products. o Service: Supporting customers post-purchase. 3. Support Activities: o Procurement, Technology Development, Human Resource Management, and Firm Infrastructure. 4. Examples: o Manufacturing companies like Ford or Toyota focus on optimizing each stage to reduce costs and increase efficiency. 23 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation 2. Value Shop 1. Definition: o A value shop mobilizes resources (people, knowledge, money) to solve specific customer problems rather than producing goods【147†source】. o Often iterative: Activities are repeated until a satisfactory solution is achieved. 2. Key Activities: o Problem Finding: Identifying the issue. o Problem Solving: Developing potential solutions. o Choice: Selecting the best solution. o Execution: Implementing the solution. o Control/Evaluation: Assessing outcomes and refining the approach. 3. Examples: o Consulting firms, hospitals, and law firms operate as value shops by addressing unique customer challenges. 3. Value Network 1. Definition: o Value networks mediate interactions among users, creating value by fostering connections and exchanges【147†source】. 2. Key Characteristics: o Value increases as the network grows (network effects). o Customer satisfaction depends on the quality and quantity of interactions. 3. Examples: o Platforms like MobilePay or Airbnb enhance value through user interactions and participation. Comparison of Value Configurations Aspect Value Chain Value Shop Value Network Focus Product transformation Problem-solving User interaction Activities Linear Iterative Relational Examples Manufacturing firms Consulting firms Digital platforms 24 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation Strategic Implications 1. Adapting Business Models: o Firms must align their value configuration with customer needs and market demands. o Example: A retailer transitioning to e-commerce adopts a value network model. 2. Optimizing Processes: o Each configuration requires tailored strategies to enhance efficiency and effectiveness. 3. Leveraging Technology: o Digital tools can support all configurations, from automation in value chains to AI- driven problem-solving in value shops.

Adaptability: o Businesses should continuously refine their models to respond to evolving market conditions. 3. Focus on Customer Needs: o Successful models prioritize customer-centricity and deliver clear value propositions. Reflection Points Which component of the Business Model Canvas is most critical for your organization’s success? How can businesses ensure alignment between their value configuration and business model? What role does innovation play in sustaining a competitive business model? Conclusion The Business Model Canvas provides a comprehensive framework for understanding and designing business models. By aligning the nine components with strategic goals, firms can create robust models that drive value creation and capture in dynamic markets. Topic 4: Value Proposition Design Value Proposition Design focuses on creating offerings that align closely with customer needs, addressing their functional, social, and emotional jobs while relieving pains and creating gains. This methodology enables firms to craft precise, customer-focused value propositions. Understanding Customer Jobs, Pains, and Gains 1. Customer Jobs: o The tasks customers aim to accomplish in their lives, categorized as: ▪ Functional Jobs: Practical tasks (e.g., commuting to work). 27 Business Foundations 2024 Curriculum A Comprehensive Guide to Strategic Implementation and Evaluation ▪ Social Jobs: Building relationships or status (e.g., using eco-friendly products). ▪ Emotional Jobs: Personal satisfaction or security (e.g., reducing stress). 2. Customer Pains: o Challenges or negative outcomes customers want to avoid. o Example: High costs, poor usability, or risks. 3. Customer Gains: o Positive outcomes or benefits customers seek. o Example: Convenience, enhanced performance, or social approval. The Value Map 1.
