For any business to succeed, it is important to constantly evaluate, assess and
adapt. A strategic management model can help a business achieve this in a
measured and quantifiable manner.

> A strategic management model can help you take stock of your present
> environment and plan smartly for the future.

There are a host of time-tested models that have helped millions of businesses
large and small:

 * Transform their organizational structures
 * Improve their operations efficiency
 * Increase their market share and profitability

Let’s look more closely at how a strategic management model can help your small
business grow and thrive. Keep reading for a list of five popular models.

Editor’s note: If you have yet to get a business website, now is the time. Put
your business online in less than 10 minutes with Online Starter Bundle.


HOW TO CREATE AND APPLY A STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT MODEL

To select and use an appropriate strategic management model, entrepreneurs or
business leaders will need to work through these six elements.


1. CREATING A MISSION STATEMENT

A mission statement clearly defines the core objective of the business:

 * What the business does
 * Who it serves
 * How it serve its customers, community and other shareholders

> Having a clear mission statement makes it easier to communicate the business
> purpose to customers, employees and investors.

It will help you weave your values across everything your business does and keep
it true to its goals.

Here is Tesla’s mission statement for example:

“To accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy.”

Notice the use of the word “accelerate,” a word commonly used with vehicles, and
how the statement suggests the end goal is to improve the world (not just sell
cars).

A well-written mission statement like this can be used to guide all business
decisions.


2. DEFINING BUSINESS GOALS

Clear and measurable milestones help businesses achieve their intended mission.
You’ll want to create a blueprint of:

 * How the goals are to be achieved
 * How long it could take
 * What resources are required, etc.

The objectives serve as the basis for creating policy and gauging performance to
ensure that the business is moving in the right direction.


3. ASSESSING THE BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT

An important part of most strategic management models is assessing the present
business environment.

There are many models you can use for performing this analysis. The SWOT grid
(Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analyses both the internal
and external environmental factors and is popular for this purpose (scroll down
for more on this).


4. FORMULATING THE APPROPRIATE STRATEGY

Once you have solidified your business objectives, the next step is to design a
thorough and robust plan that will help achieve them.

A Balanced Scorecard (more below) can help you break your business goals down
into smaller pieces and clearly define your strategy.


5. CARRYING OUT THE STRATEGY

This next stage involves the actual implementation of the proposed strategy.
This can be tedious and time-consuming, sometimes taking several months or even
years.

It could take some time for the strategy percolate through every layer of
business, depending on:

 * The size of your business
 * How long it’s been in operation
 * The degree of change needed

Working through the strategic management process before launching a business is
ideal, as there will be no entrenched beliefs or behaviours to overcome.


6. EVALUATION AND CONTROL

The final step in applying a strategic management model is continuous review and
adjustment of the strategy.

As your environment changes, so should your plan.

 

Sometimes the change in the external environment, like competition or regulatory
changes, may suggest an alteration. An internal shift in business objectives or
leadership may also require a review of your strategic plan.

With regular evaluation (quarterly, yearly, etc), businesses can swiftly realign
or pivot their strategies to adapt to changing situations.


5 POPULAR STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT MODELS

Here is a quick look at some of the most well-known strategic management models:

SWOT ANALYSIS

Whether you are mapping out a strategy for a new business or refreshing one for
a large-scale corporation, a SWOT analysis is the first step towards strategic
planning.

SWOT is the acronym for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats.

 

Strengths and weaknesses are a part of the internal environment and can be
directly managed. Opportunities and threats come from the external environment,
therefore your business can only anticipate and react to them.

For a SWOT analysis to work, you’ll need to come up with appropriate
recommendations as to:

 * How to capitalise on your strengths and opportunities
 * How to minimise your weaknesses and threats.

BALANCED SCORECARD

A Balanced Scorecard (BSC) can be used to design a framework for tracking and
managing your strategy. A BSC characterises goals into four distinct
perspectives that are interconnected — financial, customer, process and people
goals.

Create a Balanced Scorecard with this online template.

 

Based on these parameters, a BSC helps a business bring its strategy to life,
communicate it across the organization and track the performance through
periodic reports.

STRATEGY MAP

A Strategy Map can be used along with other models to identify and communicate
critical information across the organization via a visual representation. This
is an effective way to get others’ support, improving your chances of
accomplishing every milestone.

Use this strategy map template to create your own.

NEEDS GAP ANALYSIS

This is a useful tool for existing businesses that are not growing as they’d
like to. A Needs Gap Analysis or Need Assessment can be used to chart a course
of action after identifying specific internal deficiencies.

This exercise allows you to bridge the gap between where your business is and
where you want it to be. You can learn more on how to do this type of analysis
here.

PORTER’S FIVE FORCES



A model that helps identify a business’ strength and weaknesses relative to its
industry, Porter’s Five Forces looks at five competitive forces, viz:

 * Existing competition in the industry
 * Potential for a new entrant
 * Power of suppliers
 * Power of customers
 * Threat from substitutable products

This can be used to measure the competition, business viability and
profitability of a market. It’s also useful in designing a strategy to achieve a
competitive advantage.

There are almost a dozen other strategic management models, and if you would
like to read up on them, we suggest you head here.


IN CLOSING

There is no one perfect strategic management model. More often than not, for a
well-rounded strategic management, business leaders will have to rely on a
combination of various tools to keep pace with customer needs, competition and
evolving technology.

Although this type of planning takes time, every minute you spend on it will pay
off in the long run.
