What is Strategy?
• Strategy is the search for a sustainable competitive advantage over rivals– the search for economic rents
• Competitive advantage as shareholder value:– “above-average performance in the long run” (Porter, 1985) – “sustained superior financial performance” (Barney, 1986)– “persistent high relative profitability” (Thomas, 1986)
• Competitive advantage as stakeholder value:– “a value-creating strategy not simultaneously being implemented by
any current or potential competitors” (Barney, 1991)– the ability of a an enterprise to “create more economic value than
the marginal (breakeven) competitor in its product market” (Peteraf & Barney, 2003)
Competitive Advantage
The Ability to Create More EconomicValue Than Competitors
• there must be something different about a firm’soffering vis-à-vis competitors’ offerings
• if all firms’ strategies were the same, no firmwould have a competitive advantage
• competitive advantage is the result of doingsomething different and/or better than competitors
What is Shareholder Value?
• Shareholder value is the share price of the firm
• The primary responsibility of management– Milton Friedman (1970): The social responsibility of business is to
make a profit
• Share price allows comparisons between companies with and across industries/sectors
• Share price is based on the future expected returns (dividends and capital appreciation) of the firm

What is stakeholder value?
• Stakeholder value is how much a product, service, employment or other relationship is worth relative to other things stakeholders could do
• Value creation (broadly defined) is the strategic objective of the firm– Competitive Advantage is the ability of a an enterprise to “create
more economic value than the marginal (breakeven) competitor in its product market” (Peteraf & Barney, 2003)
• Stakeholder value captures the value of the firm relative to its nearest competitors (opportunity costs)
• Stakeholder value and shareholder value are related, but not the same

Re-slice the pie
• Economic value is fixed
• Competition
• Win-lose relationships
• Spillovers not possible
• Key objective: Identify relevant reservation prices
• Shareholder value at the expense of stakeholder value
• Examples: Auto industry, ca 1970; Airline industry, while regulated
• Economic value is variable
• Co-opetition
• Win-win relationships
• Spillovers critical
• Key objective: creating incentives to innovate
• Shareholder value along with stakeholder value
• Examples: Auto industry, SUV & cross-over offerings; Airline industry, Southwest Airlines, industry after deregulation
Grow the pie
Business and economic value
• Marketing:– From creating customer demand to uncovering value opportunities
• Human Resources:– From compliance and gate-keeping to creating specific assets and
knowledge spillovers
• Supply Chain Management:– From weeding out inefficiency to creating alliances and value spillovers
• Culture:– From “touchy-feelies” to concrete expectations/ norms for excellence
What is Strategy?
• Strategy has to do with choosing among alternative paths for translating goals into action in ways that create competitive advantage
• Strategy is long term
• Strategy is the heart of economic value
• Strategy involves attitudes, activities, and assets
• Strategy differs from operational effectiveness
• Operational effectiveness can not grow the pie
• Strategy is about NOT DOING certain things
• Strategy is a “map” of where you want to go, what you have, and what you need to get there
