Value creation only happens in diffusion / exploitation. Eric Wood suggested to turn the whole phasing around: first enter to the market and get some customers with someone else product. Example was a scientist with unique bio product, started with competitors product to get customers. Moving on from there.

Some propositions for consideration: P1: Value creation potential is only as good as the weakest link in your innovation / entrepreneurship value P2: The most commonly neglected component is the last which is also the most important for value creation P3: Limiting the number of projects at the conversion stage is even more important for an entrepreneurial venture P4: The failure to recognize flawed assumptions is the single greatest constraint on value creation. P5: A primary task of managers and entrepreneurs is to create an environment in which flawed assumptions are likely to be recognized quickly and acted on appropriately

Exploit before you explore "As a strategy the gold medalist consistently chose to pursue exploitation over exploration initiatives" "... Henry Wellcome... wanted to make name for himself as a medical pioneer" "... the first of many occasions that the firm exploited someone else's invention" "... a me-too product like Zantac could never win more than 50% of the market... Galxo decided to put a price premium to stress its superiority over Tagemet" "... once again buying, rather than buildling its pipeline.

"Risk to value creation in the portfolio" Three mechanisms:

  • Duplication
    • Do not pursue projects that are too similiar, possibly competing for resources
  • Omision
    • Gap's in execution (marketing, development): you need every function
  • Alignment
    • Product does not solve a 'customer pain'

Realistic goals for a disciplined portfolio approach

  • Greater formalization of strategic purpose, priorities, and project selection criteria, desirable project characteristics
  • Improved communication of these
  • More effectively manage expectations of project stakeholders
  • Highlight dangers of project overload & non-availability of critical resources
  • Highlight imbalances, gaps
  • Presever resources for 'special case' projects
  • Highlight need to reexamine strategic purpose
  • Improve team cooperation, commitment
  • But selection process:
    • Wil not be scientific or objective
    • Must leave scope for management judgement

Portfolio techniques

  • Value maximization
  • Balance alignments
    • Strategic methods
    • Yime & Resources
    • Risk & Reward (bubble)
    • Scoring
  • The danger is that these techniques are killing the conversion

Method perspective

  • Strategic methods
  • Financial methods
  • Scoring model
  • Bubble diagrams

40% of businesses only use financial methods (Cooper et al 2001)

Consideration in the selection the method

  • Simplicity
  • Ease of use
  • Suspectability to manipulation
  • Usefulness for drawing in different perspective

Weighted Scoring Method Capable of incorporating

  • Market attractiveness
  • Timing
  • Risks
  • Company Competence

Summary:

  • Preserve resource for exploitation
  • Displined portfolio metohds need to focus on improving conversations
  • Do not only use financial methods
