STRATEGY IMPLEMENTATION

Strategy Implementation is the translation of chosen strategy into organizational action so as to achieve strategic goals and objectives. Broader aspect of Strategy Implementation is all about Developing and Utilizing its important parameters viz;

Organization Structure Control Systems Culture

IMPLEMENTATION A GAP

Research of Management Strategists: Mankins & Steele (2005)

Companies realize only 63% of performance promised by their strategies. Poor implementation is to the fact that 95% of employees do not understand companys strategy.

Kaplan & Norton (2005)

Johnson (2004)

66% of the corporate strategy is never implemented.


Top-down or Laissez-Fair Senior Management Style Unclear Strategy and conflicting priorities. An Ineffective senior management team. Poor vertical communication. Poor coordination across functions, businesses or borders. Inadequate down-the-line leadership skills and development

Beer & Eisenstat (2000) Six Silent Killers


STRUCTURAL LEVERS
Who, what and when of cross functional integration Actions

Installing strategic support systems Policies

Programs

Establishing Strategy Supportive policies

Systems

Installing organizational learning and continuous improvement practices

ACTIONS
FOSTERING CROSS FUNCTIONAL INTEGRATION AND COMPANY COLLABORATION.

Input and Collaboration of all the members at all the levels of strategy

Eg: Lack of support from pilots was one of the roadblocks to the cost cutting strategy of AI

Cross Functional Integration

Integration between the all the activities of the value chain Eg: At ICICI bank aggressive sales pitch is backed by streamlined operations.

PROGRAMS

Organizational learning & continuous improvement must incorporate innovation into the implementation lever

Creation of Innovation Chain to include global partners in the innovation effort

strategy-supportive practices & operating procedures thereby pushing daily activities in the direction of efficient strategy execution

aligns

actions & behaviors with strategy, thereby minimizing divergent decisions and conflict

shape

character of work environment and translates corporate philosophy into how things are done, how people are treated, and what corporate beliefs and attitudes mean in everyday terms; determines the fit between corporate culture & strategy

SYSTEMS: INSTALLING STRATEGIC SUPPORT


Cross-functional decision criteria gave better results then functionally anchored decision criteria
Enabled managers to quantify subjective interaction into more easily understood framework Provides timely access to both qualitative and quantitative data Estimate how much to invest, which business model to support and which capabilities are needed Concerns related to security/ privacy of data are issues related to implementation of IT system Development of a decision-support model to assist in making complicated cross functional issue easier to understand

The lever suggests using multiple type of awards for motivating and encouraging employees E.g. Genpact has the system of awarding - Gold, Silver and Bronze Recognition Certificates to their employees along with the commensurate performance bonuses

ORGANIZING

Organization Culture is a powerful strategic implementation tool for business Culture is a system of shared values and norms in an organization Culture

Internal (operational)

Engineering Culture (Core technology)

Executive Culture (A Model to follow)

Shaping of Organizational Culture requires:


Clarity Consistency Comprehensiveness

The Strategy formulation performance gap can only be removed if the organization culture is ready to adapt to higher standards and develop appropriate attitude and behaviour in the long run

USE OF LEVERS AT DIFFERENT STAGE


Entrepreneur needs to understand the impact of each of the levers and its strengths and weaknesses Early Stage An analytical tool to identify levers that might serve as barrier to companys long term success.

Entrepreneur knows the role and impact of each lever to overcompensate one lever weakness with another lever strength successful implementation of well formulated and appropriate strategy for established firms to achieve overall corporate success

Established Stage

CONCLUSION
Role : facilitated the formulation and implementation of strategies

Resistance :Unless weak lever were identified and overcome, it would constraint future strategy formulation

Relaxation : Use of all eight levers are not necessary , a clear understanding of each levers role and its impact on ability to suceed is necessary

Result : Strategy Implementation helps create future
