Strategic business planning is rapidly evolving as we navigate the impacts of high inflationary pressures.
Today’s leaders must match their strategies and business planning approaches to anticipate what to expect and having a flexible strategy to deal with the risks and opportunities is critical.
They must embrace the opportunities and disruptive potential while maintaining the agility to adapt to changing conditions as we emerge to the new normal.
We offer creative solutions that have helped organisations all industries and sectors develop and execute business strategies.
We help organisations take advantage of their industry or sector’s trends and shifts and incorporate this thinking into their business planning.
Addressing the business challenges presented by high inflationary pressures
Businesses face many challenges, economic, financial, legal, regulatory, and, of course, sales.
The economic challenges include the need to manage supply, demand, inventory, pricing, and cash flow.
The financial challenges include the need to maximize returns while dealing with inflation, and the need to manage debt.
The regulatory challenges include the need to manage compliance.
The legal issues involve managing product liability, intellectual property, and employment.
Finally, the sales challenges are the need to manage the changing customer behaviours.
How is your organization currently responding to the high inflationary pressures?
We see significant changes to innovation and business strategy priorities, including increased support of the core business. While there has been staff and budget reductions, there is a commitment to developing growth opportunities and an emphasis on “doing more with less”.
Some organizations see these inflationary pressures as an opportunity to go and innovate, to collaborate and create a brand-new product in an adjacent marketplace.
From an innovation and business strategy perspective, we will need to determine what is fundamentally changing in terms of market performance and outlook, which market trends are temporary, and which trends will become permanent and become established as the new normal.
