Business volatility and uncertainty has challenged the work of our company's strategy departments and our Chief Strategy Officers (CSO). A wide gap has opened up between the value Chief Strategy Officer contributes and what is expected of them.

The future demands that our company's strategic process should add considerable value. The new business model requires that our Chief Strategy Officer to 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.

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 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). We also introduce the concept of the CSO Value Cockpit.

This deck also includes slide templates for you to use your own business presentations.
