High-performing Companies
Companies don’t fail for lack of vision.
They fail because they cannot
translate their vision into execution.
Vision without execution is
hallucination.
3/15/2016
High-performing Companies
“Great performance is about 1%
vision and 99% alignment”
Jim Collins

One Page Translator™
How does a company translate its vision
into execution and results?
It all starts with a vision (core ideology)
and then a specific plan and process
to execute that vision

organization has them

• Already exist and need to be discovered
• Do not change in response to market conditions
• Should be evident to all
“We would hold onto our Core Values even if
they became a competitive disadvantage”

Discovering Core Values
Jim Collins Martian exercise and model
• Identify candidates who Martians should observe
• Capture two or three key attributes from each
• Look for similarities and consolidate into five to six
• Sort into Core, PTP, Accidental & Aspirational values
• Divide up, write one sentence descriptions and agree
• Snicker-test all
• Reconvene, review and modify as required
• Rollout carefully and without splash
3/15/2016
Purpose
• An organization’s reason for being - Answers the
question “Why do we exist?”
• Lasts the life of the leader / founder(s)
• A star on the horizon (forever pursued, never reached)
• Internal use
To get at purpose, ask “Why” five times
3/15/2016
Why does your company exist?
“We provide automotive intelligence”
Why?
“Because the OEM’s need it”
Why?
“To select the best potential dealers”
Why?
“It increases the new dealer success rate”
Why?
“It improves their decision-making”

Jim Collins’ Hedgehog?
“The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing”
Isaiah Berlin
3/15/2016
Hedgehog
• What kind of work, customers, business are we really
passionate about?
• What can we be best in the world at (and what is our
world)?
• What drives our economic engine (profit / X)?
3/15/2016
Hedgehog
CAN BE
BEST IN
WORLD
PASSIONATE
ECONOMIC
ENGINE
3/15/2016
“Hedgehog is a great
filter to test new
opportunities against
to assure a company
remains focused on
key areas”
Hedgehog Examples
• Walgreens
– The best, most convenient drugstores with high profit per
customer visit.
• Wells Fargo
– Run a bank like a business with a focus on the Western United
States.
• Abbott
– The best company in the world at creating products that make
health care more cost effective.
3/15/2016
Hedgehog or Fox?
• Hedgehogs
– Simplify complex issues
– Focus on a single idea,
concept or vision
– Unify multiple visions and
guide actions
• Anything that does not relate to
the Hedgehog idea holds little
relevance
3/15/2016
• Foxes
– Pursue many ends at the
same time
– See the world in all its
complexity
– Are scattered and diffused,
moving on numerous levels
– Never integrate thinking into a
single overall concept or
unified vision
BHAG
• At least 10 years out (10-30 years)
• Has to reinforce core values, purpose and business
fundamentals
• Need a clear finish line
• A catalyst that can drive emotions
• Gulp factor; audacious but not braggadocios
• The center or “sweet spot” of your Hedgehog
3/15/2016
Four Types of BHAG’s
• Target BHAG – qualitative or quantitative
• Common enemy BHAG
• Role model BHAG
• Internal transformation BHAG
3/15/2016
BHAG Examples
• Become a $125 billion company by the year 2000
(Wal-Mart, 1990)
• Become the dominant player in commercial aircraft
and bring the world into the jet age (Boeing, 1950)
• Become the Harvard of the West (Stanford, 1940’s)
• Crush Adidas (Nike, 1960’s)
