Strategy Consulting

What it is

Navigating the complex world of strategy involves making strategic choices that uniquely position you in the minds of your customers, setting you apart from competitors and establishing your brand as the one that delivers the most value at a relative price. It’s about identifying the differences that give you an edge and tailoring your approach to benefit your customers. Essentially, what sets you apart from the competition?

Finding that unique market position requires making trade-offs about where to compete (where to play) and determining what you will do differently to ‘win’ in terms of your Customer Value Index (CVI). This involves clearly focusing on which customers to serve and which needs to meet at the right price for the perceived value, as well as specializing in the right activities to enhance how work is done, thereby increasing your CVI.

Strategy encompasses several key areas: Core Ideology & Ambitions, Market Strategy and Positioning, Capability Strategy, and Capital Strategy. These areas prioritize your efforts, resources, and capital to enable effective strategy execution.

The elements of each area include:

  • Core Ideology: Your purpose (reason for existence), core values (behavior principles and culture), and BHAG™ (Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal).
  • Market Strategy: Where to play (core customer, needs served, unique value proposition (UVP), products and services, brand promise, segmentation, geography, and channels). How to win (differentiating activities, X-Factor, one-phrase strategy, “secret sauce”).
  • Capability Strategy: Differentiating activities, capability map, and value chain.
  • Capital Strategy: Key initiatives, required resources, funding methods, prioritization, and capital allocation.
  • Strategy Execution Plan: One-Page Strategic Plan (OPSP), management system, value driver metrics, goals, targets, and accountable persons.
