What will be the next important step for a large group leader when a newly developed ambitious strategy is approved by shareholders? The good answer is to implement it. How can you ensure its successful implementation in the most efficient way? The excellent answer is to apply international best practice in the strategy execution across the group.
Such decision was made in a vertically integrated manufacturer of high value-added rolled metal and its products operating on the international market. The group’s shareholders sought to establish prerequisites to ensure the successful implementation of the adopted strategy. The building of the strategy execution system was to be performed simultaneously with the beginning of the strategy execution.
Such task setting is a rather serious challenge to the company’s management skills, even taking into account the involvement of management consultants. To accomplish it, a joint team with the top management of the group was created, and the project was divided into several stages.
In the course of the project, the strategic goals formulated were clarified, detailed and specified, and related, interconnected indicators were developed to assess the achievement of the goals. After the implementation of organizational and technical mechanisms for strategy management at the senior level, the decomposition of goals / indicators and mechanisms for strategy management at the second level – business units, and then at the third level – shops was performed. At the same time, strategic management was integrated into the management and organizational systems of the group, establishing an environment for step-by-step achievement of strategic goals in the daily work of the entire group management. The developed and implemented system made it possible to effectively execute the ambitious strategy and achieve the shareholders’ goals. The implemented strategic management system has found a good reception among managers at all levels.
