Direction and strategy with purpose
Eva Öjert explains why purpose is a superior approach to corporate strategy, how it will provide a competitive edge and help you maximize impact on all stakeholder levels.
In strategy, your purpose serves as a strategic compass. It will guide decision-making away from short-sightedness and place focus on long-term impact and value.
A purpose will help you pinpoint and express the fundamental idea why you exist, what you want to achieve and thus why you will prosper. When you know why you’re in business today and why you will be tomorrow, it’s a lot easier to decide what to do next.
We still see purpose siloed off from the core business along with CSR and communication initiatives. –Eva Öjert, Client Leader at Lynxeye
Internally, purpose will unify employees and investors in a shared direction they believe in and are prepared to invest in. Externally, It will give customers a true reason to buy your products and make the public like you and what you do.
But far from all businesses manage to unlock these effects and truly maximize impact on all stakeholder levels. Your purpose needs to be uniquely crafted according to your situation to do so. We still see purpose siloed off from the core business along with CSR or communication initiatives.
Eight out of ten employees want to work for a company that makes a positive impact in the world.
A well-known example of purpose-led strategy is IKEA, which has the purpose, “To create a better everyday life for the many people.” While the specific wording might not have been solidified at the very beginning, the core idea of improving people’s lives through affordable and functional home furnishings has been a driving force for IKEA from the start.
Its purpose has guided IKEA to place tremendous focus on cost-conscious design, multi-functional furniture, safety features, sustainable materials, self-service options, and not least, constant product innovation.
When a purpose is guiding your direction and strategy, and is leveraged in aspects of your business, it will become your most important competitive advantage.
Purpose-driven companies are five times more likely to be innovation leaders than others.
