Strategic Resource Alignment and Corporate Development PPT

This PPT slide, part of the 69-slide Corporate Strategy Primer PowerPoint presentation, presents a structured overview of the resource-based view of corporate strategy. It begins with a definition emphasizing how a company generates value by coordinating its various business activities. This sets the stage for understanding the interconnectedness of a firm’s operations.

The section on diversification highlights that new business ventures should be pursued based on resource similarities that can drive success across different markets. This approach suggests that leveraging existing strengths is more beneficial than merely expanding into new areas without a strategic basis.

Corporate value added is another critical aspect. It underscores the necessity for a firm's resources to enhance the competitiveness of all its businesses. The slide introduces the concept of a "corporate acid test," which serves as a litmus test for assessing whether the collective value of a company's businesses justifies their existence under the same corporate umbrella.

The process of developing corporate strategy is outlined as beginning with a clear vision. This vision should articulate how a company’s resources can set it apart from competitors. Following this, there’s a need for deliberate investment in these resources over time to ensure the strategy is actionable and sustainable.

Finally, the slide mentions the importance of tailoring the organization to align with the strategic vision. Benchmarking against successful companies is also suggested as a method to refine and enhance strategic initiatives. This comprehensive view provides valuable insights for executives considering how to align their corporate strategies with resource capabilities.
