In his talk, Dr. Compo will present how agile thinking is crucial to strategy design. He will first show a rigorous definition of strategy derived from a model of innovation, clarifying the difference between a strategy and a strategic plan. After discussing several implications of this definition—including definitions of tactics, execution, and strategy testing—he presents an agile-adaptive technique for strategy framework design. This technique centers around a strategy alternative matrix (SAM). A ‘minimum viable” SAM is drafted, then evolved as a whole until a compelling alternative emerges. This agile-adaptive approach is contrasted with traditional stepwise approaches to strategy design.

About our speaker:

Peter Compo is the author of The Emergent Approach to Strategy: Adaptive Design & Execution.

Unlike many strategy authors from universities and consulting firms, Compo’s professional experience was spent working in the corporation E. I. DuPont. Hired as a research scientist, he held leadership positions in product management, marketing, supply chain, business management, and integrated business planning. He left DuPont after 25 years to work full-time on developing the Emergent Approach.

Dr. Compo hails from a multi-generational family of musicians. But, he went on to earn a Ph.D. in chemical engineering from the City University of New York before joining DuPont.

His mission is to create a new level of clarity on strategy theory and practice to enable organizations in any domain to achieve their aspirations.
