DESCRIPTION
What Is the Chief Strategy Officer (CSO) Role?
The CSO is an executive who directly reports to the CEO; and who's primary responsibility is Strategy Development and Management. This function includes formulating the Corporate Vision and Strategy, overseeing Strategic Planning, and leading strategic initiatives.
However, this CSO role is evolving. Business volatility and uncertainty has challenged the work of our company's strategy departments and our Chief Strategy Officers. A wide gap has opened up between the value Chief Strategy Officer contributes and what is expected of them.
This PowerPoint presentation discusses the CSO role and its evolution in modern times. This PPT on the Chief Strategy Officer role is organized into 3 main sections:
1. Strategy
2. CSO Overview and Profile
3. CSO Performance Management
The future demands that an organization's strategic process should add considerable value. The new business model requires that our Head of Strategy orchestrate contributions to Strategy as core task. Strategy work has stopped being the monopoly of the central strategy office. The work now gets done all over the company.
Thus, the future sees the Chief Strategy Officers evolving into Strategy Hub Managers. CSO skill sets will shift away from pure subject area expertise as communication and social skills acquire greater significance. CSOs’ core task is to orchestrate contributions to strategy—this requires review of current skills, activities, understanding of their own mission.
In addition to discussing the evolving role of the CSO, this presentation also discusses the CSO's core functional skills, key strategic activities, self-perception of how they add value to the organization, and Chief Strategy Officer KPIs (Key Performance Indicators). We also introduce the concept of the CSO Value Cockpit.
This PPT also includes slide templates depicting (1) Strategy Organizational Breakdown, (2) CSO Functional Skill Breakdown, (3) CSO Activities & Initiatives Breakdown, and (4) CSO Self-perception, which you can customize and utilize in your own business presentations.
The presentation also covers the decentralized structure of strategy work and the importance of CSO performance measurement. It includes customizable templates for organizational breakdown, functional skills, activities, and self-perception.
