3. Developing the strategy
• Defines the organization’s purpose and goals and carefully examines
the external and internal environment to identify opportunities and
constraints regarding that strategy.
• The strategy development practices followed by the most successful
organizations. (A 2006 McKinsey survey)
• The systematic strategic development process follow by four steps:
• Part 1
– Crafting mission , vision and value statement
– Strategic goals
– Strategic analysis
• Part 2
– Formulating and launching the strategy

4. These four strategy development steps address
the following four questions:
1. What business are we in and why?
2. Where are we going ?
3. What are the key issues that or strategy must address?
4. How can we best compete?

6. Vision, Mission & value

7. Mission
The mission is a brief , typically one-sentence , statement
that defines the fundamental purpose of the organization.
Defines what the organization provide to its clients and
Inform executives and employees about the overall goal that they
have to pursue.

8. Value
• The value of a company prescribe its desired behavior
, character , and culture.
• Example:
“selling the highest quality natural and organic products available “
“supporting team member excellence and happiness”
“caring about our communities and our environment “

9. Vision
• The vision is a concise statement that defines the mid-to long-
term(three to ten years) goals of an organization.
• Characteristics of vision :
– External
– Market oriented
– Express preferably in clear, specific aspirational terms
– Measurable

10. Quantifying the vision
• A quantified vision provides a clear focus for the strategy by
including a measurable outcome and a targeted value.
• Three essential components of a good vision statement :
– A quantified success indicator
– A definition of niche
– A time line for execution
• Example 1 :
– The vision statement of CIGNA property & casualty :
“ to be a top quartile specialist within five years”
• Example 2 :
– John F. Kennedy vision for US space program
“to land a man on the moon and return him safely to earth before the
end of the decade”
• Example 3 :
– Leeds University (UK)
“by 2015 , our distinctive ability to integrate world class research
scholarship and education will have secured us a place among the top
50 universities in the world”

11. The benefits of vision
Increase the clarity of the message
Adds a discrete definition of success that can be cascaded to
lower organizational level
Establishes a time frame in which the success will occur
Sets an ambitious target for the strategy at the highest
organizational level and early in the planning process
Stability of mission, vision, and value

12. Enhancing the vision
The enhanced version moves the vision beyond a
simple outcome statement of the vision.

13. Strategic goals : define and decompose the
value gap
• The value gap represents the difference between aspiration and
reality; it becomes the goal for the new strategy to fulfill.
• The value gap represents the difference between the desired
outcome and what could be achieved by maintaining the status quo
with the existing strategy.
• The key financial measure is combined ratio
