Wells Fargo Mission and Strategy Our vision is: “We want to satisfy all our customers’ financial needs and help them
succeed financially.”
Goals: If we had to select only one goal, it would be revenue growth. It’s the most important measure of service, sales and customer satisfaction. It’s the vote our customers cast every day with their pocketbooks. When they rave about our service, they’ll give us more of their business, increasing revenue. They’ll refer new customers to us. They’ll stay with us for life.
We can’t control the economy, interest rates, the markets or world events. We focus on what we can control and what we can sustain long term: our core performance, our revenue growth.
Strategy : Having a vision is not enough. You need a strategy to achieve that vision, along with a business model that can succeed in any economic cycle. You also need extraordinary execution. In fact, it’s all about execution. A good strategy perfectly executed will beat a great strategy poorly executed every time. The customer value of cross-selling :The core of our vision-based strategy is “cross-selling”—
the process of offering customers the products and services they need, when they need them, to help them succeed financially. The more we give our customers what they need, the more we know about them. The more we know about their financial needs, the easier it is for us to work together for them to bring us more of their business. The more business they do with us, the better value they receive and the more loyal they become. The longer they stay with us, the more opportunities we have to satisfy even more of their financial needs. That’s the mutual benefit of cross-sell.

Wells Fargo Strategic Priorities Our vision is: “We want to satisfy all our customers’ financial needs and help them
succeed financially.” Putting customers first :Serving our customers starts with knowing our customers. The more
we know about our customers’ needs, the more we can offer them the choice, convenience and price benefits they look for. They want us to know them, respect them, appreciate them and reward them for doing business with us. The winners in financial services will be companies that know the most about their customers, obtain that information efficiently and securely, treat it respectfully and use it most wisely.
Growing revenue: Wells Fargo is a growth company, and the most important measure of growth is revenue. That’s the measure that shows us how well we serve all of our customers’ needs, earn their trust and grow our market share. There are only three ways a company can grow……You have to show you can grow revenue internally first. That’s called organic growth. You can’t buy your way to greatness. You have to earn it from your current customers.
Reducing expenses: We should live by a simple test: “If our customers, or our shareholders, knew we were spending money this way, would they approve?” If they wouldn’t, we shouldn’t. When we find wise ways to reduce our expenses, we free up funds to benefit our customers, invest in the future and reward our shareholders.
Living our vision and values: Every day when we come to work, we have the opportunity to bring our vision and values to life. That’s what we do every time we help a customer or support a fellow team member. That’s where our vision and values need to live—in our everyday behaviors.
Connecting with communities and stakeholders: We’re here to serve all of our customers, to help them succeed financially, to invest in our communities and to help our nation grow stronger.

Incentives can have Unintended Results
Example: A goal is to manage expenses, the vision is to deliver value to the customer
Salary/wage increase guidelines are set, and managed by HR Incumbent salaries allowed to rise x% per year But market salaries go up x%+ Result is increased employee turnover, less value to
customers Need to have employee retention & development
incentives Studies have found that most accounting fraud began as
consequence of incentives
Growing Through M&A
Cultures are resistant to change New hires or transfers adopt the cultural norm Cultures are stable through time Visions and mission statements may be ignored
Global companies often grow through mergers or acquisitions Need for a communication document to far flung regions or to
integrate new organizations into the company culture Company visions and goals can be marketing documents as well:

Aligning ‘Vision’ with Goals and Incentives
Vision statements are often crafted by a small group of
senior executives after much debate, and then forgotten. They may be intended as communication material to the
outside world of government bodies or markets To be effective internally visions must have some role in
daily workplace activities Visions must be aligned with goals. Goals must be
aligned with incentives. Companies may have multiple goals with varying importance
(revenue may be most important this year, profit next year) Incentives must support the goals (alignment). Employees are
deeply attuned to incentives, and will ignore visions if incentives point in a different direction
Eastman Kodak CompanyBackground information
Founded in 1880s, once an iconic US firmIn 1976 Kodak sold between 85-90% of all film
and cameras in the USA Fuji of Japan took market share in 1980s
(economy segment)In 1994 Kodak 20th ranked US company by sales
Kodak spins off Eastman Chemical, now thriving Apple launched a digital camera made by Kodak
Kodak stops selling film cameras in 2004, becomes biggest retailer of digital cameras in 2005
Falls to 7th biggest digital camera retailer by 2010Declares bankruptcy in 2012
15
Eastman Kodak CompanyTransition from Film
Gross margins in the film business estimated at 75% Compare with computers and peripherals at 33% George Eastman wanted ‘rapid succession of changes and improvements’ Kodak had technological lead in film backed by patents Vertical integration and cost leadership Film sales immensely profitable
Digital imaging a disruptive technologyKodak executives aware of digital camera trend from 1993*
CEO Fisher from Motorola and Bell Labs hired 1993, a technologist Resistance by customers (film development business) Resistance from investors (legacy business as ‘cash cow’) Company culture resistance (film business, not imaging) Public image of support for film business through 1990s CEOs aware of competitive environment, no barriers to entry in digital,
lower margins Collaboration with Canon in 2000 (professional segment) Collaboration with Fuji, HP, IBM, others to develop digital image storage By late 1990s Kodak was leader in digital color management and
electronic image sensors due to huge digital R&D effort

Eastman Kodak CompanyWhat Went Wrong?
Conflicts between film and digital began to ebb around 2005 More collaborative culture Ten years elapsed since CEO Fisher began determined push to digital
Leader in digital sales in 2005 Losing money on each camera Legacy labor costs* Vertical integration impossible in digital business (JVs, alliances instead) Diminished film business (would have been used to subsidize transition)
Tried to buy time by selling film in developing markets But Asian film sales dropped as rapidly as elsewhere
Falls to seventh rank in digital camera sales in 2010 Capable competitors Canon, Sony, Samsung, and Nikon in Asia and others Pace of change in digital camera business rapid and unpredictable, with
rapidly declining pricesCould Kodak’s culture adapt to digital’s pace of change?
Did they miss a product cycle in 2007? What happened in their R&D organization? Marketing?

The Importance of Execution John Stumpf, WFC Chairman and CEO: Having a vision is not
enough. You need a strategy to achieve that vision, along with a business model that can succeed in any economic cycle. You also need extraordinary execution. In fact, it’s all about execution. A good strategy perfectly executed will beat a great strategy poorly executed every time.
Look at the 2012 US elections Both sides had resources constraints Both needed to find and reach target voter (market) segments to allocate
resources The side with 14 months of planning and preparation had tested systems in
place Strategy execution failed due to lack of system testing for the losing side
Kodak arguably had a sound strategy for going digital Miscalculation of the speed of decline of the film business in China Unable to milk the business to subsidize a money losing digital business Institutional barriers hindered the speed of progress in the transition Failed in the execution
