This PPT slide, part of the 67-slide Strategic Portfolio Management PowerPoint presentation, presents a conceptual framework for building a portfolio, using the metaphor of a funnel. This visual representation emphasizes that innovation originates from various sources, but must undergo a stringent filtering process to ensure only the most viable ideas progress to the Strategic Portfolio stage. The funnel shape illustrates how ideas are narrowed down through several phases, each requiring careful scrutiny based on established criteria and analysis.
At the top of the funnel, diverse sources of innovation are identified, including internal inputs, customer insights, research findings, and considerations related to policy and law. This highlights the multifaceted nature of idea generation, suggesting that successful portfolio management relies on a broad spectrum of inputs. The funnel narrows as ideas are subjected to an audit and categorized into relevant segments, ensuring that only those with the highest potential are retained.
The right side of the slide outlines the key components of Portfolio Management: Identification, Categorization, Evaluation, and Selection. Each of these stages plays a crucial role in the overall process. Identification involves recognizing potential ideas, while Categorization organizes them into logical groups. Evaluation assesses the merits of each idea against specific criteria, and Selection determines which ideas will move forward in the portfolio.
This structured approach not only streamlines the innovation process, but also enhances decision-making efficiency. For executives considering this framework, it offers a clear methodology for managing a portfolio that aligns with strategic objectives, ensuring that resources are allocated effectively to the most promising initiatives.
