LSE Events | Prof. Richard Rumelt | Good Strategy/Bad Strategy: the difference and why it matters

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 24 жов 2011
  • Speaker(s): Professor Richard Rumelt
    Chair: Professor Gordon Barrass
    Recorded on 20 October 2011 in Sheikh Zayed Theatre, New Academic Building.
    Developing and implementing a strategy is the central task of any leader. Richard Rumelt shows that there has been a growing and unfortunate tendency to equate motherhood and apple-pie values and fluffy packages of buzzwords with "strategy."
    Richard Rumelt is the Harry and Elsa Kunin Professor of Business and Society at UCLA Anderson.
    An audio mp3 podcast is available here - www2.lse.ac.uk/newsAndMedia/vi...

      Slides??? Next level strategy: No slides. TED talks often don't have slides and when they do, the "focus" stays on the speaker. Videographer is a pro.

      And don't hit microphones to test them. 1. your sound crew has set it up, sound checked it and turned it on ...or sack your sound crew. 2. microphones are delicate and expensive. They are not anvils designed for bashing with a hammer, they are instruments to be spoken into. So speak into them to test them. "Good evening" is a good start. Of course, all the wrinkles should have been worked out at the rehearsal.

    For everyone who seems to comment, on what a good "strategy" is are rather infuriating. If you know anything about business let alone strategy, you would understand that strategy is only relevant to your specific circumstances. There is no blanket just theories which may help you tailor your own strategy. So anyone who has commented on the lack of a good "strategy" must seek to learn more about the topic.

    My answer has nothing to do with capitalism. A good strategy does not necessarily have to predict the future exactly, but rather devise a means of responding to changes in the present with rapidity and a concentrated effort.
    Consider his praise for Steve Jobs' "wait and see" strategy. The electronics market is very volatile and unpredictable, but there are inventions at irregular intervals that lead to new industries. A good strategy might be to husband resources for the next big thing, yes?

    Because nations compete militarily one strategy that would cause a nation to beat its adversaries is to spend more on the military and get more bang for the buck than it's potential adversaries. Cutting welfare spending is a way to generate the funds to do this. If a nation wants to beat it's foes it can work on being a military super power and then use it's military power to get economic and political advantage..

    It should get interesting if Correia makes Assange into an Ecuador ambassador. But what has any of this to do with MITI and zaibatsus, or with the crippled US economy being forced to support a federal managerial leisure class?

  • @DrCruel
    @DrCruel 12 років тому

    Untrue. Good strategy is a very educated guess, with stength kept in reserve for unforeseen events. Bad strategies are often nothing more than blind guesses.
    One does need a model, agreed. That applies as much to economists of different schools as it does for military commanders using different combat concepts. Modeling is a critical component of this process.

    Yes, there are quite significant differences between American and Japanese capitalist corporations. That's why Toyota is making huge profits at their US-based manufacturing facilities, using happy, well paid, non-union American labor to make their cars..

    steve jobs sadly didn't live to enjoy his brilliant success but when it becomes good to 'put all your eggs in one basket' is Good strategy?
    it seems we just follow the current successful examples because they are just successful, tomorrow when Apple's shares fall down will example of bad strategy?

      Trying charging your cavalry at a column of tanks.
      Apple is only going to keep its position as number one if they can continue to innovate and build on their successful ecosystem.
      Samsung is not the same kind of company as Apple is. If you check out Samsung in their wikipedia page, you would have known that Samsung's revenue is equal to 17% of South Korea's 1082 billion GDP (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samsung). Samsung have deep roots in many traditional industries which few companies can enter and compete.

    • @orggrog4013
      @orggrog4013 Рік тому

      Apple were facing bankruptcy. So they focused on survival. They reduced complexity. If you want to call it "putting all your eggs in one basket", that's fine because that's all they could do really though it wasn't obvious. 4% of the market share was all they needed at the time to survive. Also Steve waited for opportunities to grow beyond that. Focus allows you to ride the waves of technical change.

    Honda is run by an ancient samurai family, one that once made armor hundreds of years ago. Mitsubishi dates back to the Meiji Restorarion, and was responsible for the Mitsubishi Zero, perhaps the finest fighter of the early WW II era. As for Toyota, it is crushing the US auto giants. Their non-union American employees are fiercely loyal to their firm.
    Our contentious companies, where management and labor hate each other and only think of themselves, have no chance against such competition.

  • @DrCruel
    @DrCruel 12 років тому

    ( ... also, invention is a wasteful process, with unpredictable chances of success. Thus why entrepreneurship and experimentation is encouraged. In the US model, successful inventors are ripped off and their ideas used by larger, stronger corporations. In Japan, reserch and development are subsidized by the government and rewarded. That's why so many new modern inventions are becoming more prevalent in the east rather than the west.)

    His distinction between good and bad strategy seemed unnecessary as it was really between strategy and no strategy. It seemed strange that he should grace the latter with the title of strategy as it clearly was not. It was just fuzzy thinking.
    The importance of a clear objective being where you wanted to get to and the strategy being the route to get there was put forward but then rather lost in incoherence. He talked about focus but seemed to lose this discipline.

    General motors went down for other reasons. While product differentiation is a valid strategy for other type of industries, not necessarily for automotive. Good strategy is to fill in all price ranges along with quality products to prevent newcomers from entering unattended niches. Having competing products within an organization prevents outside competition from stepping in..specially y high volume markets.

    Doesn't this depend on the state model? ex. capitalism vs communism. Or what if our moneys were issued not by privet central banks as debt, but by the state under a certain set of rules. ex. to control the amount issued at any one time. Wall st. would be totally different. Also, the public moneys that are invested in wall st. would be totally different. ex. look at the comprehensive financial reports of the individual states. The schools here represent and are tied to the current financial structure. After all, you get tenure because you have represented the status quo faithfully in it philosophy.

    The content was barely groundbreaking, or coherent, and I'm not sure he prepared much other than regurgitating a few previously-presented slides. Almost no interaction from the audience who were mostly silent for 90 minutes. Not sure why people gush over this.
