[ Try to find the best match between a firm’s resources and capabilities (it’s strengths) and the market opportunities. Defend against threats by fortifying weaknesses. ]
Premise of Strategy Formulation & Planning (for Growth):
Find a way to exploit opportunities better than competitors.
Create a strategic plan to effectively execute the strategy.
But what exactly constitutes a market “opportunity”?
For years opportunities have been defined within the context of industry analysis - supply side economics.
The basis of competition has shifted to individual value propositions and business models - demand side economics.
This means that “opportunities” now reside within the business realities that can that can signal possibilities for improving, extending or innovating value propositions and business models.
....or in other words,
Demand Creation
The strategy formulation and planning process is still largely conducted by a small group of senior managers.
Burden of the Past: Legacy Behaviors
They use SWOT, PESTEL and Competitive Intelligence to “identify” the best growth opportunities.
They are most often wrong.
But, where there is a lot of uncertainty in the business environment, there is a high assumption-to-knowledge ratio
High assumptions / low knowledge
Under conditions of high uncertainty, the best opportunities cannot be identified by passive analysis of reality.
Rather, opportunities must be discovered by enacting on business realities.
Inquiry, observation, collaboration, experimentation, etc.
Further, business realities are continually presenting companies with a steady stream of potential opportunities and some threats.
Under conditions of high uncertainty, achieving the best match must be a dynamic process happening all the time.
The Opportunity Stream
Proactively improving and innovation business models, offerings and strategies in timely response to changes in the business environment with the aim of maximizing profitable revenue.
The Need for Dynamic Growth
The workforce must have an entrepreneurial mindset in order to discover highly profitable opportunities hidden in plain site.
But what is an Entrepreneurial Mindset?
An entrepreneurial mindset is the ability to look at business realities from the perspective of demand creation possibilities.

Uncertainty is not turbulence. It is opportunity!
Reframe:
Uncertainty is not something to be avoided. It is something to be exploited.
Balancing Planned Growth and Dynamic Growth
What does it look like?
