The five key parts of a strategy are: arenas, vehicles, differentiation, staging, and economic value. By answering key questions in each area, you paint a picture of your strategy with increasing clarity.

Arenas – “Where will we be active and with how much emphasis?”:

  • Which geographic areas?
  • Which market segments?
  • Which product categories?
  • Which value-creation stages?

Vehicles – “How will we get there?”

  • Acquisitions?
  • Joint ventures?
  • Internal development?
  • Licensing/franchising?

Differentiation – “How will we win?”

  • Customization?
  • Image?
  • Price?
  • Product reliability?

Staging – “What will be our speed and sequence of moves?”

  • Speed of expansion?
  • Speed of initiatives?
  • Economic Logic
