Preface

THE COHESION CASE

Coca-Cola Company, 2018 BY FRED R. DAVID

www.coca-cola.com, KO

Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, Coca-Cola Company (Coke) is the world’s largest producer and distributor of beverages, marketing over 500 nonalcoholic brands in more than 200 countries. Coke has 21 billion-dollar brands, 19 of which are available in lower- and no-sugar options. Four of the top five beverages sold globally are Coke products: 1) Coca-Cola, 2) Diet Coke, 3) Fanta, and 4) Sprite. Other Coke products include Dasani waters, Fanta, Gold Peak teas and coffees, Honest Tea, Powerade sports drinks, Simply juices, Glaceau Smartwater, Sprite, and Zico coconut water. However, company’s revenues for 2017 declined 15 percent, so rumblings are spreading within the firm.

MINI-CASE ON THE BOSTON CONSULTING GROUP

WHAT AMERICAN FIRM HELPS THE MOST COMPANIES DO STRATEGIC PLANNING? The answer to the question posed above might be the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. A worldwide management-consulting firm founded in 1963, BCG had rev- enues of $6.3 billion in 2017 and more than 16,000 employees. BCG’s President and CEO is Rich Lesser. BCG was ranked third among Fortune’s “100 Best Companies to Work For” in 2017 and was ranked first among Consulting Magazine’s 2016 “Best Firms to Work For.”

In formulating strategies, some firms use BCG’s Advantage Matrix to portray on the x-axis the “size of a firm’s competitive advantage (Low versus High)” and on the y-axis “the number of ap- proaches a firm can use to achieve competitive advantage (Low versus High).” Based on these two axes, strategic implications for firms located in one of four quadrants can be labeled, according to BCG, as: Fragmented, Specialization, Volume, and Stalemate, as illustrated below:

ETHICS CAPSULE 10

TOMS Shoes, Inc.: Shoes Are Magic, Put Shoes on Every Child on the Planet

Headquartered in Santa Monica, California, TOMS Shoes exhibits high social responsibility, excellent business ethics, and a daily com- mitment to fair-labor practices and environmentally sustainable design and manufacturing. Founded by Blake Mycoskie, TOMS emphasizes philanthropy as an integral part of its business model— as evidenced with its “One for One” program through which the company donates a pair of shoes or provides vision care with every

respective shoe or pair of sunglasses purchased. Another key te- net of TOMS’ business model is its nonprofit foundation, Friends of TOMS, which organizes and leads several meaningful service activities, including the One Day Without Shoes initiative aimed at raising global awareness of health risks associated with not wear- ing shoes. Supporters of TOMS have the opportunity to volunteer for service trips to countries where the company’s donations will be distributed to local communities in need. On their website, www .tomscampusprograms.com, TOMS provides students with infor- mation related to how they too can become involved with the company’s philanthropic efforts. TOMS Shoes showcases how good ethics, sustainability, and social responsibility is good business; the company not only has excellent financial performance but is doing noticeably well in all three areas of the triple-bottom line perfor - mance (profits, people, and planet).

Set 1: Strategic Planning for Coca-Cola—25 exercises apply chapter material to the Coca- Cola Cohesion Case to prepare students for doing case analysis on for-profit companies.

Set 2: Strategic Planning for My University—12 exercises apply chapter material to your college or university to prepare students for doing case analysis on nonprofit organizations.

Set 4: Individual versus Group Strategic Planning—11 exercises apply chapter material by comparing the effectiveness of individual versus group decisions; these are fun, in-class group exercises that yield “a winning individual and winning group” for each activity.

Detailed Chapter-by-Chapter Changes Chapter 1: THE NATURE OF STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT—SWOT analysis is intro-

duced; the integrative comprehensive strategic-management model is repositioned to the opening page of each chapter; the model is enhanced to accent the process of strategic planning being fluid rather than merely a sequence of silo activities.

Part 6: STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT CASE ANALYSIS—this section that follows all chapters has been totally re-written to be more concise and revealing for students performing case analysis.

22 Author-Created Video Assignments in the MyLab We have added 11 videos introducing the content of each chapter and 11 videos discussing a variety of important topics such as mission statement delivery, BCG matrix, corporate evaluation, etc. created by the author. Each video is associated with multiple-choice questions to help students assess their learning.

Solving Teaching and Learning Challenges The primary challenge facing strategy professors is to keep students engaged while making sure business skills are learned. This text leads all others in being practical, skills- oriented, and unfolding in the same manner as the process of actually doing strategic planning unfolds. Students and pro- fessors alike appreciate this practical approach presented in a concise, conversational, and exciting manner— beginning with the integrative model of the strategic-management process that unifies all chapters. All of the 11 end-of- chapter Mini- Cases, 471 Review Questions, and 62 Assurance-of- Learning Exercises are designed specifically to apply chapter concepts.

The Case Rationale Case analysis remains the primary learning vehicle used in most strategic-management classes, for five important reasons:

1. Analyzing cases gives students the opportunity to work in teams to evaluate the internal operations and external issues facing various organizations and to craft strategies that can lead these firms to

http://www.strategyclub.com
xviii PREFACE

success. Working in teams gives students practical experience in solving problems as part of a group. In the business world, important decisions are gen- erally made within groups; strategic-management students learn to deal with overly aggressive group members as well as timid, noncontributing group members. This experience is valuable because strategic-management students are near graduation and soon enter the working world full-time.

2. Analyzing cases enables students to improve their oral and written communication skills as well as their analytical and interpersonal skills by proposing and defending particular courses of action for the case companies.

3. Analyzing cases allows students to view a com- pany, its competitors, and its industry concur- rently, thus simulating the complex business world. Through case analysis, students learn how to apply concepts, evaluate situations, for- mulate strategies, and resolve implementation problems.

4. Analyzing cases allows students to apply con- cepts learned in many business courses. Students gain experience dealing with a wide range of or- ganizational problems that impact all the business functions.

5. Analyzing cases gives students practice in applying concepts, evaluating situations, formu- lating a “game plan,” and resolving implementation problems in a variety of business and industry settings.

The New Concepts-by-Cases Matrix All 30 cases facilitate coverage of all strategy concepts, but as revealed by shaded cells, some cases especially exemplify particular key strategy concepts. The shaded cells reveal which con- cepts are tested with multiple-choice questions in the MyLab. The Concepts-by-Cases matrix enables professors to effectively utilize different cases to assure student learning of various chap- ter concepts. Note from the shaded boxes that two, three, or four cases are used to test each strategic-management concept. This new, innovative ancillary promises to elevate the case learn- ing method to new heights in teaching strategic management.

The Case MyLab Testing Feature The Concepts-by-Cases matrix facilitates student learning of 30 key strategic-management con- cepts applied to 30 cases. The Case MyLab Testing feature assures that the students can test their understanding of cases and the key strategic-management concepts, thus serving as a great mechanism for professors to achieve AACSB Assurance-of-Learning Objectives. This new test- ing feature simplifies grading for professors in both traditional and online class settings.

This MyLab assessment includes 25 multiple-choice questions for each case, comprised of 10 Basic questions that simply test whether the student read the case before class, and 15 Applied questions that test the student’s ability to apply various strategic-management concepts. The 15 Applied questions are presented in three sets of five that pertain to key concepts of particular importance for the respective case. This testing feature enables professors to determine, before class if desired, whether students (1) read the case in Basic terms, and/or (2) are able to Apply strategy concepts to resolve issues in the case. For example, the MyLab case Basic question may be: In what country is Domino's Pizza headquartered? Whereas a MyLab case Applied question may be: What are three aspects of the organizational chart given in the Domino's Pizza case that violate strategic-management guidelines?

The Chapter Warm-up assessment helps you hold your students accountable for READING and demonstrating their knowledge on key concepts in each chapter before coming to class.

Chapter Quizzes Every chapter has quizzes written by the textbook authors so you can as- sess your students’ understanding of chapter learning objectives.

The David Approach Is Unique This textbook is globally considered to be the most practical, skills-oriented strategic manage- ment textbook on the market. All chapters unfold from a widely used integrative model of strate- gic planning, so students learn the “process of doing strategic planning,” rather than focusing on seminal theories in strategy. The David approach is “learning by doing”—students develop skills that can enhance their own employability through numerous features, such as 62 new Assurance- of-Learning end-of-chapter exercises in this edition.

Mini Sims put students in professional roles and give them the opportunity to apply course concepts and develop decision-making skills through real-world business challenges.

These branching Mini Sims strengthen a student’s ability to think critically, help students understand the impact of their decisions, engage students in active learning, and provide students with immediate feedback on their decisions.

Each decision point connects to the Learning Objective in the eText.

Students tell us they enjoy learning through Mini Sims!

xxii PREFACE

In addition, we offer more coverage on important topics, such as business ethics, social re- sponsibility, and sustainability, than any other strategic-management textbook, including topics such as bribery, workplace romance, devising codes of ethics, taking a position (or not) on so- cial issues, and preserving wildlife—topics that other textbooks do not mention, even though companies continually face strategic decisions in these areas.

We also offer more overage of global/interna- tional issues than any other strategic- management textbook, including topics such as how business culture, taxes, tariffs, political stability, and eco- nomic conditions vary across countries—all framed from a strategic-planning perspective.

Lastly, this textbook is trusted across five continents to provide students (and managers) the latest skills and concepts needed to effectively formulate and efficiently implement a strategic plan—a game plan, if you will—that can lead to sustainable competitive advantages for any type of business. This text meets all AACSB Inter- national guidelines for the strategic-management course at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, and previous editions have been used at more than 500 colleges and universities globally.

Developing Employability Skills Using this text, students learn how to actually do strategic planning—this is a huge employability skill because employers recognize the benefits of employees having an understanding of what a firm is trying to achieve and why. Nearly all students using this text also use the free strategic- planning template at the www.strategyclub.com author website; many students include this skill on their resume to showcase their experience using this Excel software commonly used by busi- nesses for doing actual strategic planning.
