This PPT slide, part of the 26-slide McKinsey 7-S Strategy Model PowerPoint presentation, outlines a structured approach for conducting a 7-S analysis, emphasizing the importance of starting with Shared Values. It suggests that organizations should first assess whether their core values align with their existing structure, strategy, and systems. If discrepancies are found, it prompts leaders to consider what changes are necessary.

Following the evaluation of Shared Values, the slide instructs to examine the hard elements of the 7-S framework. This involves analyzing how well these hard elements—strategy, structure, and systems—support each other. The goal is to identify any areas requiring modification to enhance cohesion among these components.

Lastly, the slide addresses the soft elements, which include skills, style, staff, and shared values. It encourages a review of whether these soft elements reinforce the hard elements and if they are mutually supportive. If not, it raises the question of what adjustments are needed to ensure alignment.

The iterative nature of this approach is highlighted, indicating that adjustments may be time-consuming, but are essential for achieving effective alignment across all elements. This methodical process allows organizations to refine their strategies and operations continuously, ensuring that all components work harmoniously towards common objectives.

For potential customers, this slide serves as a practical guide, illustrating a clear pathway for conducting a comprehensive analysis that can lead to improved organizational effectiveness.
