Focus on Balanced Scorecard Implementation

Featuring Jeroen De Flander

Business growth and geographical expansion are dominating executive agendas for most businesses in the Middle East. However, with a volatile business climate and increasing competition from cross-border companies, managers are looking at strategy techniques to help them take advantage of new opportunities as well as build strategic competitive advantage in their organisations. More and more, strategy executives are required to build organisational agility into their strategy frameworks to ensure they are prepared to respond timely to any changes in their environment.

Similarly, governments in the GGC are increasingly pushing for improved organisational performance measurement and management in public sector organisations. The side-effects of these challenges include managing talent and performance, embedding strategy in organisation culture, engaging with middle management, leading change and mitigating risks.

Running for over a decade, the Strategy Leaders Forum brings the world’s elite thinkers in the fields of strategy and innovation to the Middle East’s business community. 2015 is no exception with a mix of high-profile thought leaders as well as regional CEOs and strategy practitioners. The Forum facilitates dialogue to address the region’s strategy formulation and execution challenges. Join the conversation and be at the top of your game.

09.30 GURU MORNING: The End of Competitive Advantage and the New Strategy Playbook

For years, the ultimate goal of strategy was presumed to be a ‘sustainable’ competitive advantage. Strategy when advantages are not sustainable, however, can be just as powerful. It does require completely different approaches to budgeting, resources, and talent management, as

well as an increased emphasis on creating a pipeline of innovations. This talk describes some of the counter-intuitive aspects of dynamic strategies, for example that it may make sense to sub-optimize some processes in the interests of preserving flexibility.

Discovery Driven Planning is a planning and learning process that helps executives systematically convert assumptions to knowledge so that they can access significant opportunities while containing risk. The core premise of the method is that when there isn’t enough information to develop a conventional business plan, the thrust of planning must instead be on learning, while at the same time reducing cost and risk.

WORKSHOP A

Rethink and Innovate Your Strategy Using Business Model Generation Methodology

While many organisations in the GCC have had a stable model for a number of years, the changing dynamics of today’s economic and social market are rendering current business models unsustainable and obsolete. The financial crisis, globalisation, digitisation, access to information and changing consumer behaviours have transformed the way corporate and Governments need to think about and respond to their customers. New innovative business models are required to keep meeting expectations of the 21st century customer.

This practical facilitative workshop will explain how organisations can use the ‘Business Model Canvas’ to drive innovative business models and robust strategies. It will enable you to challenge your existing models and design new strategies that reach new audiences and customers. The team will also explain how to use the canvas to innovate and start developing new business models for the future.

Led by:Carlos Guevara, Partner, ShiftIN PartnersRoberto Wyszkowski, Partner, ShiftIN Partners

WORKSHOP B

Business War Gaming – Simulation Based KPIs and Performance Management Workshop

Effective performance management and KPIs are essential building blocks for successful strategy execution. This high impact, experiential learning workshop will use war gaming techniques to provide a hands-on approach to identifying, selecting and aligning KPIs to organisational strategy.

You will go-through one of the most competitive and intense workshop experiences working in small teams to take multiple decisions in a simulation exercise. Using performance dashboard, live market and share price indicators to align performance management in your virtual business to its agreed strategy.

Led by:Taimur Kiddie, Director – Middle East & Africa, BTS

WORKSHOP C

Middle Managers’ Role in Strategy Implementation - The Lynchpin Of Success

You can have the greatest strategy in the world, but if you cannot implement it, it is not worth the paper it is written on. While senior leaders are the mastermind of strategy, middle managers are the lynchpin of strategy implementation. It is said that the “the devil is in the details”. Hence, it is extremely important that middle managers are able to tailor an execution plan which effectively supports strategy.

This workshop is designed with the aim to enhance middle managers’ capabilities in translating strategy into actions.

This highly, engaging interactive and results orientated workshop employs group discussion, paired sharing, individual reflection, mini case studies and videos to help participants acquire strategy execution know-how and skills. Led by:Robin Speculand, Bridges Business Consultancy

WORKSHOP D

Balanced Scorecard Execution Workshop– Linking Strategy to Budgeting and Talent Management

This is an interactive workshop where practitioners can advance their knowledge of the Balanced Scorecard concepts. The smaller group setting will provide an ideal environment to tackle individual questions in more depth and group exercises will enhance learning and ‘take-away’ output.

The first session will guide you through the concept and rationale of the BSC, its context, key aspects, various applications, the cascading of BSC to align employees to the overall organisation. The second session will look at the development process including planning and output design; it will also examine how to align existing strategic and operational plans with budget, as well as specific methodologies including the Balanced Scorecard Institute’s 9 steps. Session three will look at how to use the BSC model to its best effect, including ‘ownership’, management leadership, Rules of Engagement and dynamic scorecard development.

Led by:Eddy Abou Chakra, Managing Partner, Vanguards Consulting

WORKSHOP E

Change Management Skills for a Fully Embedded Strategy Execution Programme

No organisation has a strategy that requires us to stand still. In a rapidly changing world, littered with unexpected surprises, it is critical for every organisation to manage change. Organisations that respond best to change usually emerge as the “winners”. But whilst there is widespread recognition of the importance of change, there is an equally widespread concern that change management (“CM”) is difficult to implement successfully. So if strategy execution is a critical requirement for the future, and change is a key element of strategy execution, how can we use the BSC to address the inherent challenges of the subject? Understand what “change management” is and why it is so important for strategy execution? Learn how to align change management within the Balanced Scorecard. How can we measure / assess change management as a “measure” within the Scorecard? Identify and manage the common barriers to successful change management. Understand the “output” aspect of change management (“benefits management”) and how to assess the effectiveness of change management.

Led by:Alan Fell, Managing Director, Alan Fell Consultancy

WORKSHOP F

Practical Project Management Concepts to Improve Your Strategy Execution

This workshop focuses on how organisations can significantly increase the achievement of their strategic objectives by implementing key project management concepts to identify, align, score, prioritise and select project initiatives. The OSM can learn a lot from project management tools and techniques to ensure that strategic initiatives are chosen in alignment with the overall strategy and are followed through until they deliver value to the organisation.

Through a mixture of examples and interactive exercises, attendees will learn how to execute strategic initiatives by implementing key project management concepts in your organisation today.

PAYMENT DETAILS A confirmation letter and invoice will be sent to you on receipt of your registration form. Please note that payment must be received

before the event date.

Upon receiving invoice my preferred mode of payment will be: Cheque p Bank Transfer p Credit Card p

These terms and conditions apply to delegate registrations for all conferences and public training courses (each an "Event") organised by Informa Middle East. Please read them carefully as they contain important information. By submitting your registration you agree to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree to be bound by these terms Informa will be unable to accept your registration.

1 Your registration constitutes an offer to Informa to attend an Event. All registrations are subject to acceptance by Informa which will be confirmed in writing (including but not limited to email). A contract between Informa and you will only be formed when this confirmation is sent to you (whether or not it is received) provided that if confirmation is not sent within 14 days of us receiving your registration, it will be deemed to be confirmed unless we notify you otherwise. Informa reserves the right to refuse to accept any registration.

2 Payment for the Event must be received in full by Informa in accordance with Informa's payment terms from time to time in force but in any event not later than 48 hours before the Event. If payment in full is not received before the Event, Informa reserves the right at its sole discretion and without liability either to require payment as a condition of entry to the Event or to refuse entry to the Event. No refunds of any proportion of fees already paid (if any) will be made and any balance of the fees will remain due and payable where entry to an Event is refused under this condition 2.

3 Discounts for group registrations are only valid for the number of delegates specified. If the number of delegates attending the Event is less than the number specified in the group booking (either as a result of cancellations prior to the Event or as a result of delegates failing to attend the Event), Informa reserves the right to revise the fees in line with the number of delegates actually attending the Event in accordance with Informa's published prices then in force and require payment of such fees in accordance with the terms of condition 2.

4 Prices for each Event are correct at the time of publication. Informa reserves the right to change the prices at any time but changes will not affect registrations which have already been confirmed by Informa.

5 Registrations cancelled after confirmation by Informa but more than 7 days before the Event are subject to a $200 administration charge. Registration fees for registrations cancelled 7 days or less before the Event must be paid in full. If you fail to attend an Event, the full fees remain payable and no refunds will be given. Informa reserves the right to cancel any registration after confirmation in which case all fees paid will be refunded. You acknowledge that the refund of registration fees is your sole remedy in the event of cancellation of your registration by Informa and all other liability is expressly excluded.

6 Substitutions are welcome at any time but in all other respects delegate registrations are issued for your personal use only. You may not purchase registrations as agent for any third party or sell or otherwise transfer your registration to others, or exploit the registration commercially or non-commercially in any way.

7 You may transfer your registration for a training course to an alternative course provided that the alternative course takes place within 3 months of the date of the original course. Transfers are subject to availability and to the payment of any additional fees due in respect of the alternative course. You will not be entitled to any refund when you transfer to an alternative course. You may only transfer between courses once. We regret that we cannot accept cancellations once you have transferred to an alternative course and any fees will be remain payable in full. We regret that we cannot accept the transfer of registrations between conferences.

8 Informa reserves the right at any time to change the format, participants, content, location and timing or any other aspect of the Event, in each case without liability.

9 Informa reserves the right to postpone or cancel an Event at any time for any reason whether or not due to causes beyond its reasonable control. Where an Event is postponed, your registration will be valid for the postponed Event if you wish to attend. Where Informa postpones or cancels an Event (and you no longer wish to attend the Event where it has been postponed), you will entitled to receive either a credit note or a refund in respect of the full registration fees at your discretion. You acknowledge that the credit note or refund of registration fees (or the continued validity of your registration if you choose to attend a postponed Event) is your sole remedy in the event of postponement or cancellation by Informa and all other liability is expressly excluded.

10 Informa reserves the right without liability to refuse admission to, or to eject from the Event, any person in its absolute discretion, including (without limitation) any person who fails to comply with these terms and conditions or who in the opinion of Informa represents a security risk, nuisance or annoyance to the running of the Event. You agree to comply with all reasonable instructions issued by Informa or the venue owners at the Event.

11 Delegates requiring visas should contact the hotel they wish to stay at directly, as soon as possible. Visas for non-GCC nationals may take several weeks to process.

12 All unauthorised photography and the recording or transmitting of audio or visual material, data or information is expressly prohibited. You consent to filming and sound recording and photography of the Event as a delegate and you consent to the use by Informa of any such recording or photography any where in the world for promotional, marketing and other purposes.

13 The personal information which you provide to us will be held by us on a database and may be shared with other companies in the Informa Group and selected third parties in the UAE and internationally for direct marketing purposes. For more information about how we use the information you provide please see our privacy policy at www.informa-mea.com/privacy-policy.

14 Informa excludes all liability for loss, injury or damage to persons or property at the Event. All indemnities, warranties, terms and conditions (whether express or implied) are excluded. Informa accepts no liability for any loss or damage whatsoever that you may suffer in connection with or arising from the Event whether direct, indirect or consequential (including but not limited to loss of profit, loss of business or any other type of economic loss) or otherwise. If Informa is liable to you for any reason, Informa's total liability to you in relation to the Event (whether under these terms or conditions or otherwise) is limited to the amount of the registration fees paid by you to Informa. The limitations and exclusions in this condition 13 only apply to the extent permitted by applicable law.

15 Informa reserves the right to amend these terms and conditions from time to time and you will be subject to the terms and conditions in force at the time you submit your registration.

16 These terms and conditions will be governed by the laws of the Emirate of Dubai and such federal laws of the UAE applicable in the Emirate of Dubai and disputes under or in connection with them shall be subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of Dubai.
