DESCRIPTION
There are countless business frameworks on Corporate and Business Strategy that have developed over the years. The frameworks can be categorized into 4 schools of thought—i.e. 4 Schools of Strategy:
1. Position School, which focuses on Competitive Strategy
2. Execution School, which focuses on Operational Excellence
3. Adaption School, which focuses on Organizational Learning and Experimentation
4. Concentration School, which focuses on Core Competencies and Strategic Intent
A successful strategy blends takeaways from all 4 schools—one that has strong coherence among its market strategy, core capabilities, and portfolio of offerings.
This framework discusses each school in depth. As part of these discussions, we also review some established frameworks, like the BCG Experience Curve, Porter's Five Forces, and Capabilities-Driven Strategy (CDS).
Additional topics touched upon include Tension in Strategy, Corporate Identity, Continuous Improvement, and others.
This deck also includes slides you can use in your own business presentations.
