First stop. A clear growth strategy.
Together with the board, we created a shared vision for impact and growth. We explored different scenarios all leading to a spot-on 3-year strategy with value-creation opportunities worth pursuing. With clear ambitious criteria for success, we started our search for future value.
Next-up. From idea to value.
We tagged along a bigger group. In co-creation with this bigger team, we identified new markets, ideated different business model options, and sketched various value propositions.
The board selected different on-strategy growth projects, such as staff-free shopping experiences, and invested to further test and develop the initiatives.
In the six months after that, the teams took full ownership of their projects. They turned their ideas into kick-ass concepts and prototypes. They set-up experiments and validated their assumptions by running in-market experiments with SPAR entrepreneurs and consumers. After the pilot period, the teams presented their results back to the executive board.
The projects that meet the growth criteria after the pilot are added to the strategy roadmap. They will be tested and developed further until they are ready for handover and full integration into daily SPAR operations.
