Premise of Strategy Formulation
& Planning (for Growth):
Find a way to exploit opportunities better than
competitors.
Create a strategic plan to effectively execute
the strategy.
But what exactly
constitutes a market
“opportunity”?
For years opportunities have been defined
within the context of industry analysis -
supply side economics.
The basis of competition has shifted to
individual value propositions and business
models - demand side economics.
This means that “opportunities” now
reside within the business realities that
can that can signal possibilities for
improving, extending or innovating value
propositions and business models.
....or in other words,
Demand Creation
The strategy formulation and planning
process is still largely conducted by a small
group of senior managers.
Burden of the Past: Legacy Behaviors
They use SWOT, PESTEL and Competitive
Intelligence to “identify” the best growth
opportunities.
They are most often wrong.
But, where there is a lot of uncertainty in
the business environment, there is a high
assumption-to-knowledge ratio
High assumptions /
low knowledge
Under conditions of high uncertainty, the best
opportunities cannot be identified by passive
analysis of reality.
Rather, opportunities must be discovered by
enacting on business realities.
Inquiry, observation, collaboration,
experimentation, etc.
Further, business realities are continually
presenting companies with a steady stream of
potential opportunities and some threats.
Under conditions of high uncertainty, achieving
the best match must be a dynamic process
happening all the time.
The Opportunity Stream
Proactively improving and innovation business
models, offerings and strategies in timely
response to changes in the business
environment with the aim of maximizing
profitable revenue.
The Need for
Dynamic Growth
The workforce must have an entrepreneurial
mindset in order to discover highly profitable
opportunities hidden in plain site.
But what is an Entrepreneurial Mindset?
An entrepreneurial mindset is the
ability to look at business realities
from the perspective of demand
creation possibilities.

Uncertainty is not turbulence.
It is opportunity!
Reframe:
Uncertainty is not something to be
avoided. It is something to be exploited.
Balancing Planned Growth and
Dynamic Growth
What does it look like?
Dynamic strategic planning results in a more
strategically agile and entrepreneurial organization
that is able to move with the speed of business to
continually discover and exploit the best growth
opportunities and effectively respond to
formidable threats.
