October 31-November 3, 2004
Caribe Hilton
San Juan, Puerto Rico
This year’s conference focuses on one of the most fundamental challenges ofstrategic management — balancing the pursuit of ongoing innovation against theceaseless demand for greater efficiency. Rather than balancing these two competingobjectives, organizations often seem to be pulled in one direction or another —announcing ambitious growth initiatives one day and downsizing the next. Somefirms do manage to simultaneously innovate and execute, create and capture value,differentiate through both features and cost — but these are uncommon and somewould say unsustainable. We will engage in a dialogue together to better define,understand, and pursue firm choices related to strategic balance with insights fromresearch and experience across an unrivalled population of firms and contexts.
The program brings together hundreds of business leaders, consultants andacademics from around the world to share their insights regarding the challenge ofstrategic balance. Among the executives, we will hear from—
• Jerry Fishman, CEO of Analog Devices;
• Roger Lacey, Chief Strategist at 3M;
• François Vulliod, Director of Strategy for France Telecom; and
• Christine Lloyd, Head of Organization Development and Change forNokia.
Leading academics and consultants will also speak, including —
• Uta Werner who will describe how she has helped Marakon clientsin the process of “profitable discovery”;
• Jay Galbraith who will show us how the “front” and “back” parts ofthe organization can be designed to pursue seemingly contradictorystrategic priorities; and
• Rita McGrath who will endorse entrepreneurship and the use ofstrategic options as the means to achieve strategic balance.
Equally important, in the best tradition of previous SMS meetings, we have createdmyriad opportunities for real dialogue and personal interaction — where we can talkface to face informally about the effect of particular business environments,competitive strategies and organizational dynamics on strategic balance.
And what better environment to confront difficult challenges, discuss emergingtheory and debate alternate approaches than the sunny Caribbean? The CaribeHilton – one of the world’s premier resorts – offers a wonderful setting. It combineslush surroundings, warm hospitality and state-of-the-art meeting facilities with theconvenience of a location just 15 minutes from the San Juan airport. This venueprovides the perfect opportunity to strike a balance between relaxation andprofessional development. We hope you will join us.

Panel Highlights
Jay BarneyOhio State University
Doug MillerTulane University
Diversification has been misunderstood and alternatelymaligned and embraced as a route to growth andcompetitive success. Professors Barney and Miller willcomment on cutting edge academic research in this areaspanning several related fields. They will cite successfuland less successful approaches to diversification — andwill share informed perspectives on the diversificationdiscount. This session will review the pros and cons ofdiversification and its true costs and value, providinginsights driven by substantial field work and quantitativeanalysis.

Brian KardonForrester Research
Since periods of discontinuous technical change are aconstant in many industries, “balanced” approaches tostrategy creation and communication are especiallyimportant. Professor Kaplan draws on her expertise andbackground as a scholar, consultant and author toilluminate the dynamics of strategic choice making intechnology driven firms. Using specific examples fromForrester Research and a perspective honed by keenobservation of trends and internal firm processes, BrianKardon will demonstrate the linkage between strategicplanning and successful competitive outcomes under realworld conditions.

“Multimarket pressure and competition: Competing indifferent environments with the same firms over time”France Telecom, a technology firm in a rapidly convergingindustry, will be able to provide examples of innovating toprotect markets in a European context, where not onlytechnology issues are complicating performance, butregulatory and national versus European Union issuescomplicate performance. Extending the reach of yourcore product/market, and protecting what you currentlyhave will be critical.
Managing the tension between exploiting the core whileexploring new business models has been a source of valuecreation for Analog Devices. In their session, Mr. Fishmanand Professor Govindarajan will explain how this has beenaccomplished from both applied and academic perspectives.The audience is sure to glean useful insight from thesurprising results of their joint research.
Professor Galbraith coined the term “front-backorganization” as a way to achieve strategic balancing —allowing customer-facing elements to drive innovation whilethe back end focuses on generating efficiency. In hisaddress, Galbraith will show how his way of thinking aboutorganization design helps firms to achieve and sustain“strategic balance.”
