Functional Strategy

For many consumer products companies hybrid structures, shared services and matrix management have made it difficult to build and retain functional excellence.

Additionally, many general managers and functional leaders are asking how each function continues to contribute to the overall success of the enterprise in the most productive and integrated manner.

As such, functional strategic plans are a high priority, clarifying the function’s role, driving functional and cross-functional best practices and insuring the development of the function’s people.
