SUMMARY OF CHAPTER6
a) Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix(QSPM) All nine techniques included in the strategy-formulation framework require integration of intuition and analysis
b) The SPACE Matrix The SPACE Matrix, another important Stage 2 matching tool. Its four-quadrant framework indicates whether aggressive, conservative, defensive, or competitive strategies are more appropriate for a given organization. Use axes of the space matrix represent to internal dimensions (Financial strength and Competitive advantage) and two external dimensions (Environmental stability and Industry strength).these four factor are perhaps the most important determine of an organizations overall strategic position. c) The BCG Matrix The BCG Matrix graphically portrays differences among divisions (of a firm) in terms of relative market share position and industry growth rate. The BCG Matrix: Divisions in the respective circles in the BCG Matrix are called question marks, stars, cash cows, and dogs. The four quadrants represent the following:
1. Question MarksDivisions in Quadrant I have a low relative market share position, yet compete in a high-growth industry. Generally these firms cash needs are high and their cash generation is low. 2. StarsQuadrant II businesses represent the organizations best long-run opportunities for growth and profitability. These businesses have a high relative market share and compete in high growth rate industries. 3. Cash CowsDivisions positioned in Quadrant III have a high relative market position, but compete in a low-growth industry. Called cash cows because they generate cash in excess of their needs. 4. DogsQuadrant IV divisions of the organization have a low relative market share position and compete in a slowed or no-growth industry; they are Dogs in a firms portfolio. d) The IE Matrix. The IE Matrix positions an organizations various divisions in a nine-cell display. The IE Matrix is similar to the BCG Matrix in that both tools involve plotting organization divisions in a schematic diagram; this is why they are called portfolio matrices. The IE matrix is based on two key dimensions; the IFE total weighted scores on the x-axes and the EFE total weighted scores on the y-axes. The IE matrix can be divided into three major regions that have different strategy implications. The first is grow and build, second is hold and maintain and lastly harvest or divest. e) The Grand Strategy Matrix In addition to the SWOT Matrix, SPACE Matrix, BCG Matrix, and IE Matrix, All organizations can be positioned in one of the Grand Strategy Matrixs four strategy quadrants. It is based on two evaluative dimensions: competitive position and market growth. Firms located in Quadrant I of the grand strategy matrix are in excellent strategic position .the firms positions in Quadrant II need to evaluate there present approach to the market place seriously. Then Quadrant III organizations compete in slow growth industries and have week competitive positions .then finally Quadrant IV business have a strong competitive position but are in slow growth industries.
