Strategy as a capability
Together with your leadership team, we develop the strategy, translate it into the capabilities you need to carry it out and steer implementation in BRIDGE ONE. Along the way, we keep reviewing the strategy in step with the BRIDGE Strategy Cycle.

The BRIDGE Strategy Cycle
The environment, society, the economy and technology keep changing the picture. So at fixed intervals, you learn from the results, check which potential and capabilities still hold up and steer the transformation. That way, you strengthen the existing business and build new business.
You use the potential you already have and get more out of it. You strengthen your market position, increase customer value and raise productivity.
This is the path between the two sides. You learn from the results, lead the change and shift resources. You build up new capabilities and rebuild existing ones.
You explore and develop new potential in business models, products, services and technologies.
The challenges
You need a process that makes the company fit for the future, keeps it able to change and repeats on a fixed schedule.
It comes down to a shared understanding of what the company is there for and what long-term goals it pursues. That gives you a direction that holds even in a crisis.
You break the strategy down consistently into business unit and functional strategies and keep the levels aligned as you go.
You follow through on implementation, review regularly and adjust where needed.
The BRIDGE Strategy Program
Each phase produces clear results. We use a Capability Map to record which core competencies you will need in the future, and you keep working with it in BRIDGE ONE.
We clarify the logic your business runs on today, which core competencies you have and where you stand on customer value. We also look at key figures such as market position, productivity, innovation and how attractive you are as an employer.
We examine the trends emerging in markets, among customers, in technology and in society. We work through scenarios for critical developments and look for blind spots and alternative business models.
We sketch an attractive picture of the future and decide which strategic questions take priority. It ends with a shared commitment to vision, mission and leadership.
We describe what value you will offer your customers in the future and what will drive your growth. In a Capability Map, we record which core competencies you will need for this. Carried forward in BRIDGE ONE
We evaluate the options and set priorities. From there, we formulate the strategic thrusts with their goals, resources and activities and draw up the business plan.
You launch the change projects, plan the resources, create learning wins and track the results. We support your teams and leaders throughout.
Six fields
You set your goals in six fields. In BRIDGE ONE, these fields become the perspectives of your Target House, for the company and for its people.
You strengthen your market position and the potential of your existing business and give your customers as much value as possible.
New business models, products, services and technologies open up new potential for success.
You develop the competencies you need, stay attractive to key people and make sure the company is able to change.
You secure your profitability so the company can keep developing under its own steam.
You use your resources effectively by automating and digitizing key activities.
You commit to environmentally sustainable solutions and transparent governance, and you create benefits for society.
Working together
Together with your leadership team, we develop a flexible strategy process and make it part of how you work. With strategic controlling in BRIDGE ONE, you see early on where things are drifting off course and can get back on track.
With your leadership team, you decide which capabilities give you an edge and clarify which people, data and tools they require. This is often the start of the Capability Map.
Based on your strategic thrusts, we determine which capabilities you need, assess their current and target maturity and set priorities.
In addition to the Capability Map, we develop a Capability Canvas with annual goals, AI use cases for each capability and a roadmap. We also work out which tasks people take on and which ones AI handles.
Strategic controlling and capability reviews run in BRIDGE ONE. There, you update maturity levels, spot deviations and adjust initiatives.
