Leituras para reflexão

Um conjunto de textos interessantes que merecem ficar no meu arquivo:


"customers are not paying to offset your costs. They are paying to fulfill their needs –utilitarian or hedonistic. It does not matter to them what your costs are or how you are allocating them. When was the last time you were at a coffee store and paid separately for employee salary or the decorative lighting?
It is not the cost that comes first, it is the price that comes first."
Enquanto os membros da tríade só pensam nos custos, este blogue pertence ao clube da minoria que prefere falar do preço, que prefere falar do valor co-criado. Por falar em valor co-criado:

"The bottom line in my thinking is that, since Value is dominantly created in-use and is a result of co-creation between company and Customer, marketing strategies should shift their focus from creating momentum for value exchange (the sale) to creating momentum for interactions that support Customers in creating value for themselves. And since value is something that can only be defined by its beneficiary we need to understand what outcomes Customers desire when they hire a company’s resources to get their jobs done. The Customer’s journey towards that outcome is where opportunity for marketing lies to design service that support Customers, employees and partners to co-create more (or better?) value together."
"Service Dominant Logic, Customer Jobs-to-be-Done, Service Design" - BTW, ando a aprender umas coisas muitos interessantes sobre Customer Jobs-to-be-Done com Anthony Ulwick.
.
Outro tema recorrente neste blogue é a tareia ao "eficientismo" acima de tudo, por isso:

  • "Wrangling complexity: the service-oriented company" - texto que merecia uma reflexão séria pelos gestores da coisa pública, claro que deliro. Sobretudo, na área da Saúde, ou na área da Justiça, ou na área da Educação, com as suas instituições gigantes, lentas e comandadas a partir de Lisboa:
"Most businesses today are not designed with agility in mind. Their systems are tightly coupled, because their growth has been driven by a desire for efficiency rather than flexibility.
Consider the difference between a car on a road and a train on a train track. The car and the road are loosely coupled, so the car is capable of independent action. It’s more agile. It can do more complex things. The train and track are tightly coupled, highly optimized for a particular purpose and very efficient at moving stuff from here to there – as long as you want to get on and off where the train wants to stop. But the train has fewer options – forward and back. If something is blocking the track, the train can’t just go around it. It’s efficient but not very flexible.
Many business systems are tightly coupled, like trains on a track, in order to maximize control and efficiency. But what the business environment requires today is not efficiency but flexibility. So we have these tightly coupled systems and the rails are not pointing in the right direction. And changing the rails, although we feel it is necessary, is complex and expensive to do. So we sit in these business meetings, setting goals and making our strategic plans, arguing about which way the rails should be pointing, when what we really need is to get off the train altogether and embrace a completely different system and approach."

A importância das escolhas

Wim Rampen em "Putting Your Customer at Center? Constrain Yourself, or.." equaciona a importância de se fazerem escolhas, de não se ir a todas as oportunidades, de saber dizer não, de saber concentrar os recursos no que é essencial.

A base de uma estratégia... como aprendi com Terry Hill, "The most important orders" são as que se recusam!

Um Manifesto por Mongo!

Um excelente resumo sobre a evolução que estou a fazer, vantagens e desvantagens de um auto-didacta que conjuga o que aprende com outros com o que aprende da sua experiência profissional.
.
"A Manifesto for Social Business" de Graham Hill (via Wim Rampen).
.
O manifesto começa com uma crença. A minha crença em Mongo!
.
"I would almost go as far to say that we are fast approaching a period of ‘Business Enlightenment', based not so much on the linear thinking that drove the Enlightenment in the 18th Century, as on networked, emergent thinking which is driving so much new thinking in the 21st."
...
Os temas do Manifesto são:
.
"No1. From Individual Customers… to Networks of Customers" (Moi ici: Por isso, penso em cadeia da procura, por isso penso em influenciadores e nos clientes dos clientes)
.
"No2. From Customer Needs, Wants & Expectations… to Customer Jobs-to-be-Done" (Moi ici: Por isso, penso na experiência procurada e valorizada. Por isso, apreciei a abordagem das práticas... os clientes seguem práticas pensadas e racionais mas também seguem práticas por tradição)
.
"No3. From Company Value-in-Exchange… to Customer Value-in-Use" (Moi ici: O valor não está incorporado nos produtos e serviços mas emerge na vida dos clientes durante o uso)
.
"No4. From Delivering Value to Customers... to Co-Creating Value with Customers" (Moi ici: As empresas não podem entregar valor porque não o criam. No entanto, as empresas podem apostar na co-criação de valor com os seus clientes, tal como o empregado do restaurante que diz "I am not an order taker, I am an experience maker")
.
"No5. From Marketing, Sales & Service Touchpoints… to the End-to-End Customer Experience" (Moi ici: Todos numa empresa são, como escreve Gronroos, part-time marketers)
.
"No6. From One-Size-Fits-All Products… to a Long-Tail of Mass-Customised Solutions" (Moi ici: Mongo triunfará!!!)
.
"No7. From Competing on Products, Price or Service… to Competing over Multi-sided Platforms" (Moi ici: O negócio não é um produto, é um modelo de negócio!!!)
.
"No8. From Company Push… to Sensing and Responding in Real-Time to Customers" (Moi ici: Trabalhar na cadeia da procura e não pôr toda a atenção na cadeia de fornecimento. Olhar os clientes reais, olhos nos olhos e não confiar demasiado em fantasmas estatísticos)
.
"No9. From Technology, Processes & Culture… to Complementary Capabilities and Micro-Foundations"
.
"No10. From Made by Companies for Customers... to Made By Customers for Each Other"
.
"No11. From On-premise Applications… to On-demand Solutions from the Cloud"
.
"No12. From Stand-alone Companies… to an Ecosystem of Networked Partners" (Moi ici: Um ecossistema mais do que relações diádicas)
.
"No13. From Hierarchical Command & Control… to Collaborative Hybrid Organisations" (Moi ici: Como os políticos e académicos estão longe da nova realidade em permanente reconstrução. A eficiência não é tudo, a eficácia é muito mais importante!!!)
.
"No14. From Customer Strategy… to a Portfolio of Emergent Customer Options"
.
"No15. From Customer Lifetime Value… to Customer Network Value"
