What’s the Challenge?
Keeping that herd moving roughly west is
more of a cultural challenge than a
technical one!
Culture
• Interpersonal relationships reflect the culture of
an organisation
• The sum of those relationships defines the
organisation’s culture
• These relationships reflect a web of implicit and
explicit agreements throughout the organisation
Research (AMR study, 2010)
Success with Executive S&OP consists of:
• 10% technology
• 30% process definition and discipline
• 60% culture change
Cultural Changes:
• Post-S&OP
Pre-S&OP
• Lack of involvement by
Top Management
• Acceptance of poor
data
• Silo mentalities that
inhibit
interdepartmental
collaboration
• Reactive decision
making
• Inter-functional
collaboration, with open
trust between
departments
• Data-driven decisions
• High level of crossfunctional discipline
Proactive approaches
to demand and supply
plans
* How S&OP Changes Corporate Culture:
Results from Interviews with Seven Companies
Stahl/Mello; Foresight Journal: Winter 2010
Top Management’s Role
In Executive S&OP, it’s necessary to voice
disagreements! Management must:
• Create a culture that allows the Ugly Moose to
be put on the table -- so that they can
completely and effectively resolve
disagreements and conflict, setting proper:
–
–
–
–
Policy
Strategy
Risk assessment
Performance measurements
Before it’s in the MIX Space!
Conflict Resolution *
• Disagreement has two parts:
– Substantive issue
– Emotion behind that issue
• Disagreement becomes conflict when the
emotion is not completely addressed
• Lasting conflict resolution must deal with
both elements of disagreement
• Doing that effectively can be learned:
– With a motive to do so and
– A framework on which to work
* “Getting to Resolution”
Stewart Levine
Top Management’s Catch 22
• If Top Management does get involved from the very
beginning:
– There is risk of personal or organisational discomfort that
comes from changing the culture
– BUT that is necessary to bring about lasting results
• If Top Management does not get so involved and
committed:
– There is less personal risk of disruption
– BUT there will likely not be any substantial business
improvement

How to Engage Top
Management
“The Big Lie of Strategic Planning”
Harvard Business Review – Jan/Feb 2014 by Roger Martin
“A detailed plan may be comforting, but it’s not
a strategy.”
The Problem: Executives know that strategy is important.
But almost all find it scary, because it forces them to
confront a future they can only guess at. Strategy making
is uncomfortable.
The Solution: Reconcile yourself to feeling uncomfortable,
and follow three rules:
1. Keep it simple
2. Don’t look for perfection
3. Make the logic explicit
Engage Top Management
• Identify and enlist an Executive Champion;
someone with executive influence, willing to
“put skin in the game”
• Connect the hard benefits of executive S&OP
to successful implementation
• Follow a path of low risk/low cost
• Obtain quick results to build confidence
• Provide feedback on progress/success
• Generate local ownership and enthusiasm
