What is Strategic Management?
• Strategic management is that set of managerial decisions and actions that determine long run performance of corporation.
• It includes following:-– Environmental scanning– Strategy formulation (strategic or long range planning)– Strategy implementation– Strategy evaluation and control
• SM therefore emphasize on monitoring and evaluation of external opportunities and threats in light of corporations strengths and weaknesses.
![Page 13: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• It was originally called as business policy.• Business policy has a general management
orientation and looks inwards for properly integrating the CO’s many functional activities.
• On the other hand SM , incorporates the integrative concern of business policies with heavier environmental and strategic emphasis.
• Therefore management has replaced the business policy with strategic management.

Phases of Strategic Management• Phase-1 Basic Financial planning:-– Managers initiate serious planning when they are
requested to propose next year’s budget.– Proposals are made based on little analysis.– Sales people provide some environmental data.– It only pretends to be strategic, yet time
consuming.– Normal company activities are suspended for
weeks.– The time horizon is normally a year.
![Page 16: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Phase-2 Forecast Based Planning:-– Managers attempt to propose five year plan.– They now consider projects beyond one year.– In addition to internal data they also try to get
some external on an ad hoc basis –and extrapolate current trends into five years.
– This phase is also time consuming often involving full month of activities.
– The process gets very political as managers compete for larger share of funds.
– Endless meetings to evaluate proposals and justify assumptions.
– The time horizon is two to five years.
![Page 17: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Phase-3 Externally Oriented Planning:-– It is also called strategic planning.– Top management takes control of planning by initiating
strategic planning.– It improves its responsiveness to changes and competition
by strategic thinking.– Planning is given to planning staff for developing strategic
plan for the corporation.– Consultants provide sophisticated and innovative techniques
that are used by planning staff.– Upper level managers meet once a year at a resort to
evaluate and update the current strategic plan.– It is known as top down planning, implementation is left to
lower level.– It develops five years plan with inputs from consultants and
minimum from lower level.
![Page 18: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Phase-4 Strategic Management:-– Best strategic plans are worthless without inputs and
commitment from lower level managers.– Top management forms planning group of managers and
key employees at many levels.– They develop and integrate the series of strategic plans
aimed at achieving Co’s primary objectives.– Strategic plans now deal with the implementation,
evaluation and control issues.– The plans emphasize probable scenarios and
contingency strategies.– It leads to strategic thinking at all levels.– Strategic information on intranet is available at all levels.– Planning is typically interactive at all levels and is no
longer top down
![Page 19: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

![Page 20: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Benefits of Strategic Planning
• Organisations that engage in strategic planning generally outperform those do not.
• The attainment of appropriate match between an organisation’s environment and its strategy, structure and process has positive effect on the performance.
• A survey of 50 corporations of various countries found following benefits of SM:-– Clear sense of vision for the firm.– Sharper focus on what is strategically important.– Improved understanding of rapidly changing environment
![Page 21: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• To be effective, SM need not always be formal process. It can begin with simple Qs:-–Where is the organisation now?– If no change are made, where will the
organisation be in 1year, 2years, 5years and 10 years?– If the answers are not acceptable, what
specific actions management should take?– What are the risks and pay offs involved?
![Page 22: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Globalization and E-Commerce- Challenges to SM

• Globalisation has changed the way the modern corporations do business.
• To achieve economies of scale for keeping cost to minimum, Co are using global market instead of national.
• International assignment are considered key for any one wants to reach top positions.
• SM is important tool to keep track of international development.
![Page 23: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

railways have started using internet for their most businesses.
• Major engineering and B- schools conduct entrance examinations using internet.
• The internet is forcing Cos. to transform themselves.
![Page 25: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• The concept of electronically networking customers, suppliers and partners is now new reality.
• It is leading to closer relationship with end users, improving service and reducing cost.

• Cos. are exploring the net to become more innovative and efficient.
• The pace of business is increasing drastically.• The internet is pushing corporations out of their
traditional boundaries.• Knowledge is becoming key asset and source of
competitive advantages.

I/O Model of Superior Returns• 06 stage model• 60s to 80s
The external environment (General, Industry &Competitor environment)
An attractive industry ( with above average ROI )
Strategy formulation ( linked with above average returns in a particular industry
Asset and skills (Develop or acquire asset and skills needed to implement strategy
Strategy implementation (use the firm’s strength to implement the strategy
Superior return ( earning of above average return)
Your Strategy should beBased on ext. environment
![Page 27: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The resource based model of superior Returns
• 06 stage Model Resources (identify the firm’s resources and study them for sts, wks and compare with comp)
Capability (What do the capabilities allow the firm to do better than its comp )
Competitive advantages (ability of a firm to out perform its rivals )
An attractive Industry ( industry with opportunities that can be exploited with St & Wks
Strategy formulation and Implementation (best strategy that allows to utilise resources and
capabilities
Superior returns
Strategy be based on int. resource
![Page 28: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The Theories of Organisational Adaptation
• The population ecology Theory:- Once an organisation is established in a particular environment it does not change, hence co. is replaced by other new organisations.
• Institution theory:- It proposes that organisation can adapt to changing conditions by imitating other successful organisations. Does not explain how and why?
![Page 29: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• The strategic choice perspective:- One step ahead of institution theory and believes that the organisation have the power to reshape their environment. It emphases on managers making rational decisions.
• Organisational learning theory:- It expands the strategic choice perspectives to include people at all levels, becoming involved in providing inputs into strategic decision making.
![Page 30: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Creating a learning Organisation
• SM has evolved to the point that its primary value is in helping the organisation operate successfully in a dynamic, complex environment, (SAIL uses strategic planning for change).
• To be competitive in dynamic environment, corporations are becoming less bureaucratic and more flexible. (Explain)
• Corporations must generate strategic flexibility that is ability to shift from dominant strategy to another.
![Page 31: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
• Strategic flexibility demands that the Co. becomes learning organisation:- An organisation skilled at creating, acquiring and transferring knowledge and at modifying behaviour to reflect the new knowledge and insights.
• Organisational learning is particularly important for innovation and new product development, HP uses extensive network of informal committees to transfer knowledge.
![Page 32: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Skills of Learning Organisations• Solving problem systematically.• Experimenting with new approaches.• Learning from their own experience and past history
as well as from experience of others.• Transferring knowledge quickly and efficiently through
out the organisation.• Example:-Motorola developed an action learning
format in which people from marketing, product development and manufacturing meet to argue and reach an agreement about the needs of the market, the best new product and schedule of each group producing it
![Page 33: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Assignment-1• Each of you write mission
statement of 10 companies and discuss in your group thereafter make a presentation.
![Page 40: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Objectives• Objectives are end result of planned activities.• They state what is to be accomplished by when and
should be quantified if possible.• The achievement of corporate objective should result in
fulfillment of corporation’s mission.• The term goal is often used interchangeably with the term
objective. • As per Thomas L. Wheelen, goal is an open statement of
what one wants to achieve with no quantification of what is to be achieved and no time criteria for completion.
• Example:-Goal—Increased profitability Objective– Increase profit 10% over last
10 years
![Page 41: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Strategies• A Strategy forms a comprehensive master plan
stating how the corporation will achieve its mission and objectives.
• It maximises competitive advantages and minimises competitive disadvantages.
• Example: When Tata group realised that it could no longer realize its objectives by continuing its strategy of diversification into multiple line of business, it sold cos. like Tomco, lakme etc to HLL.
![Page 44: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Types of strategy• Corporate Strategy:-– Describes the Co.’s overall direction.– It concentrates on stability, growth and retrenchment
(Nicholas piramal followed a corporate growth strategy by acquiring other Cos)
• Business strategy:-– At the level of business unit or product level.– Emphasis on improvement to face competition.– Business strategy fits within two overall categories of
competitive and cooperative.– Apple computers followed competitive strategy where
as Air India and Lufthansa followed cooperative strategy to provide global service.
![Page 45: Basic concepts of strategic management 1csp& sim](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062702/55495fe5b4c905e94e8b576d/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

– Firms use all types of strategy simultaneously.– Functional strategy must support business
strategies which in tern supports corporate strategies.

Policies• A policy is a broad guide line for decision making that links
the formulation of strategy with its implementation.• Policies are made in such a way that employees make
decision and take actions which support the Co’s mission, objectives and strategies.
• Example:-1 Satyam computers strategy was to grow by intelligence application of technology to compete on quality rather than cost. It also made policy in such a way that every associate was considered as leader.
• 2. The researcher of 3M should spend 15% of their time working on something other than primary project, which support the strategy of product development.
• Policies must provide clear guide lines to managers through out the organisation.

Mintzberg’s Model of Strategic Decision making
• Entrepreneurial mode:- Strategy is made by one powerful individual.
• Adaptive mode:- sometimes referred to as muddling through (reactive solution to existing problem) rather than proactive approach to new opportunities.
• Planning mode:- It involves systematic gathering of appropriate information for situation analysis, generation of number of alternatives and selecting most appropriate one.
• Logical incrementalism:-Proposed by Quinn, top management has a clear idea of corporations mission and objectives. It chooses to use an interactive process for probing future, experiment and learn from incremental commitment..
