Chandlers perspective on American Business Administration
! Before 1900 - the founder of the company led the daily work ofthe organisation, a minimum of administration, one product lineand ad hoc strategy decisions.
! By the 1920s most large industrial companies were administeredthrough a centralized and functionally departmentalized structure.The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) was involved in all majorshort- and long term decisions.
! Focus was on technical issues, cost of production, assembly lineand conveyor belt. The black T-Ford.
! When this way of production became norm, the focus shiftedtowards marketing - General Motors started to compete with Ford
! Later for example: Philip Kotler Strategic Marketing Management

How to move forward after 1945! The production capacity in US and Sweden was not harmed
by the war and its industries were therefore able to meet the enormousneed articulated on the post-war markets.
! Ansoff, for one, showed that after the war companies concentrated ontheir internal strengths and their development and strategic plans werefocused on expansion only.
! When production capacity in US and Europe grew faster than the existingmarket growth, signs of saturation and profit squeeze appeared.
! Therefore large companies in US and Sweden began choosing either to
expand within existing markets or to diversify.! The need to analyse factors outside the company grow: trends of all sort,
growth rates, political development, competitors, new markets etc

Forced-growth strategies
! Horizontal - Acquisition of competitors Larger market share.
! Vertical integration Backwards or forwards in the chain of production.
! Geographical expansion Establishing production- or sales organisations in new countries.
! Diversification Diversify into new products and/or branches.

Diversification throughMergers and Acquisitions
By the late 1960s growth through the acquisition of enterprises
in distant or unrelated businesses had become almost a mania.
Where in 1965 there were just over 2 000 mergers, by 1969 there
were over 6 000. The number dropped back to 2 861 by 1973.During the period 1963-1972 close to three-fourths of the assets
acquired through merger and acquisition were for product
diversification, and one-half of these were unrelated products.
For the period 1973-1977 one-half of all assets acquired throughmerger and acquisition were in unrelated industries.

The managerial revolutionin American business
By the 1950s the managerial firm had becomethe standard form of modern business enterprisein major sectors of the American economy.
In 1963, 169 or 84.5% of the 200 largest nonfinancialcompanies were management controlled.

Structural problems within thefunctionally departmentalised hierarchies
Top managers, company directors and their staff, monitored the activitiesand performance of the middle managers who were responsible for theday-to-day operations of the functional departments.
The top managers supervised and were responsible for all major decisions
relating to optimising the flow of goods to, through and from the enterprise.
However, the more the companies grew the more complicated and complexit became to monitor and lead these processes within existing hierarchicalstructure. Top managers were drowning in a flood of information and
decision-making.
It became necessary to construct a new administrative structure.

The dynamic change in world market structure
The post-World War II deluge of technology, the dynamism ofthe world-wide changes in market structure, and the saturationof demand in many major United States industries all havecontributed to a drastic shortening of the strategy-operations-strategy cycle which management used to follow according toChandler !
Strategic change is so rapid that firms must continually surveythe product-market environment in search for diversificationopportunities.

Corporate StrategyBusiness policy for growth and expansion
This interest (for strategy) grew out of a realization that a firm
needs a well-defined scope and growth direction, that objectives
alone do not meet this need, and that additional decision rulesare required if the firm is to have orderly and profitable growth.
Such decision rules and guidelines have been broadly defined
as strategy or, sometimes, as the concept of the firms business.
Ansoff 1965
Ansoffs book from 1965 is full of detailed advice about how tocreate and implement a strategy.

Key Success Factors orCritical Success Factors
In the process building a new strategy you needto identify a number of critical factors for yourorganisation's success in the time period youhave selected.
Identify the key success factors that yourorganisation must get right in order to secureits vital goal(s).
Although many of these factors are not easilyseparated from their dependency on externalconditions, we shall call them "internal" in thesense that they can be affected by managementdecisions.

Interdependence offormulation and implementation
It is convenient from the point of view of orderly study to dividea consideration of corporate strategy, as we have divided it,into aspects of formulation and implementation and to note,for example, the requirement of the former for analytical andconceptual ability and of the latter for administrative skill.
But in real life the processes of formulation and implementationare intertwined.
Feedback from operations gives notice of changing
environmental factors to which strategy should be adjusted.
The formulation of strategy is not finished when implementationbegins.

Forecasting
In the early days of strategic planning, it was discoveredthat the extrapolative accounting-based informationsystem, typically found in firms, was inadequate andmisleading for forecasting performance in turbulentenvironments. As a result numerous forecasting andenvironmental analysis techniques were developed,designed to capture nonlinearities, complexity, andunpredictability of future environments.

Forecasting OR Scenarios
You can try predictions or forecasts - in fact you must use them forone-year operating plans and budgets. But apart from the fact thatmany of these (on interest rates for example) can be wrong evenshort term, for longer term business strategy if you use forecasts you
will find that almost all of them are wrong. At the time forecasts areannounced they carry an air of definitiveness and clarity: but thatusually turns out to be an illusion.Scenarios, especially when projected long term, say 5-10 years,are not predictions - they are possible pictures of tomorrow. But they
attempt to capture alternative futures, which serves to expand ourstate of mental readiness and flexibility.

Scenarios External conditions
We need to create pictures, scenarios of the futureto be able to make our choices today, in terms ofinvestments, risk management, when to buy or sell !
The scenarios help us to pinpoint external changesthat will have a vital influence on our business or partof it.
In other words, changes that will have an importantimpact on our key success factors during a certaintime span, and that is out of our reach to control orinfluence.
