Introduction:
As the CEO of the firm, there will be lot of strategic decisions
and vision alignment that needs to be done so that the product can
perform well in the market. The automobile industry is currently
growing at an exponential rate and while this has improved the
options for customers and provided better vehicles, there is also
huge emission of chemicals which are directly affecting het
environment and the human population. The product the firm is
proposing is ‘CleanWheels’ which will reduce the harmful emission
from the automobiles.
Mission of organization : To create a product that will reduce the
harmful emission from automobiles. The goal is to create a safer
planet for future generations to come.
Purpose: To reduce the carbon monoxide, nitrogen and sulfur by 15%
through the chemical solution filtration process of
CleanWheels.
As the CEO, I would do the following action items as part of 5 year
plan:
1. Study the market and get insights regarding the product
requirements from the end customer point of view. In any business
scenario and environment, there is a constant change in the macro
and the micro environment factors that affect the business
portfolio. To identify this, there are multiple techniques that are
used. Few popular tools are:
• SWOT Analysis
• Pestle Analysis
• Five forces
• Balanced scorecard etc.
In all these above techniques there are various factors that are
considered by the company before implementation or going to full
scale rollouts. Few of the major elements that are focused highly
by companies are Strengths, differentiation value and threats from
other areas. In case of Pestle analysis, the focus is towards
getting input and changes in business environment from political,
economic, social, technological, legal and environmental
perspective. The focus area in these parameters is the immediate
and long term threat that can happen to the company. In case of
five force model, again the focus is on the powers in the industry
and the consumers. It also gives an inference which
relates directly to the threat that a company can face.
I would directly oversee teams to do a detailed market analysis and
understand whether the market and product has similar products. If
there are some products, I would understand why they failed or
succeeded and what different competencies are present in my product
as compared to others.
2. Launch the product with minimum viable features that are
required at the moment. Other important features can be added as
part of upgrades. There are many leader who delay the launch of
product till they get all the features built which may lead to
opportunity loss by the organization.
3. Do tie up with local vendors and gas stations to promote the
product well.
4. Expansion of Markets
• In years 1-2 expand with big gas stations such as BP, Mobil,
Shell etc. in large metropolitan cities in the US: New York, Los
Angeles, Miami, Chicago, Houston, Austin and Denver.(Productions
Manager (Shalena)
• In years 3-4 expand internationally Middle East, South America,
India, Asia, Australia and Canada
• In 5 year: Expand overseas to emerging markets, look into
incorporating into gas production
• Export CleanWheels to the oil-exporting countries to mix it with
gasoline such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Russia
5. Product diversification and Expansion of Products
• Introduce 2nd and 3rd generation products for bigger vehicles
like big trucks (for example 18-wheeler trucks)
• Eventually expanding our product to work with diesel gas .
• Continue to develop new products and to improve existing products
and services.
• Continue marketing research
6. Expansion of Staff
• Hiring and training more staff with a focus on teaching our
principles/values.
• “Buy-in from staff.”
• Big Data: hiring business intelligence experts.
• Use emerging technologies to improve the solutions
• Build a competency pool of resources who can adapt to the growing
market changes
• Ensure the legal team is strong to manage any lawsuits or cases
filed against the organization.
7. Improve the Service levels with a goal related to improving
customer experience, service satisfaction and customer
retention.
8. Promote CSR activities and coordinate with local authorities and
important leaders like senators to promote the brand and focus on
giving back to the community, through philanthropy (that connects
to our mission) and volunteer organizations.
9. Ensure there is a good working culture within the organization.
When the work force is motivated and happy the services and
products delivered would significantly improve.
10. Develop proper mechanism for reward management and improve
compensation benefits to internal teams
11. Create a feedback mechanism for customers to share their
opinions, view and based on these items, continuously improve the
product
12. Apply for world class certifications like ISO 9001 to show the
product is compliant will recognized world standards.
13. Develop a relationship with startups who are working in same
field to jointly promote a safer automobile environment.
If the CEO can put all these items into action, they can lead the
organization successfully.
