4. The principles of shared value
• “Shared value creation cuts across the traditional divide between the
responsibilities of business and those of government or civil society. From
society’s perspective, it does not matter what types of organizations
created the value. What matters is that benefits are delivered by those
organizations—or combinations of organizations—that are best positioned
to achieve the most impact for the least cost.”
– PORTER, M E and KRAMER, M R (2011) 'CREATING SHARED VALUE'.
Harvard Business Review, 89 (1/2): 62-77.

5. “Not all profit is equal. Profits involving a
social purpose represent a higher form of
capitalism, one that creates a positive cycle
of company and community prosperity”

VALUE'. Harvard Business Review, 89 (1/2): 62-77.

6. According to Michael Porter…There are three levels of
shared value
1. Reconceiving customer needs, products and
markets
2. Redefining productivity in the value chain
3. Enabling local cluster development

7. 1. Reconceiving products and markets
• Around unresolved customer problems / concerns, not traditional
products
• Not just meeting consumer needs but improving lives
• Customer groups that are poorly served or overlooked – often seen as
unattractive groups
• Start with no pre-conceived constraints about product attribution, channel
configuration or economic model of the business

• Strong local clusters with capable local suppliers and institutions improves
company productivity
• Companies / institutions working together collaborative can stimulate more
significant improvements or progression
• Local cluster development can strengthen the link between a company’s
success and the community success

11. Nestlé’s CSV – diary sector in Pakistan
Nestlé - sources milk locally, tests the quality of the milk, and by using cooling
stations and collection points, Nestlé has helped to prevent adulteration and
unhygienic milk handling. By offering higher quality milk, Nestlé has responded to
growing consumers’ expectations. It has also fortified its products with iron to help to
prevent anemia.
• Consumers – value exceeded price, pay much cheaper than competitors’ milk
• Suppliers – local sourcing from 150,000 local farmers (each farmer sells
approximately the milk from 1 buffalo)
• Industry – success of Nestlé in the milk district, draws in local competition,
increases efficiency, lower price premium etc
• Employees – created over 2000 jobs with better wages, training, and Sheikupura
milk processing factory is ISO certified – safer work environment
• Communities - Over 80K jobs created total (direct and indirect), pay local taxes
• Shareholders – higher return from better shareprice improvement (28 % return)

value creation
• Shared value thinking will spur innovation, productivity improvement and
economic growth

many issues facing our society
• Businesses need to transform their thinking beyond how their current
business model is formed

beyond profit maximization

Notas del editor
Hello everyone!! Thanks for coming to this strategy lunch session, not sure if you have any specific expectation and why you would even consider showing up, but since I have podium, I will talk and share with you why I want to do this. I do find some strategic topics extremely fascinating and so fascinating to the point that I have to present and share my them. Do feel free to interject, there is a question at the end for further discussion at the end. I went to a business conference and Michael Porter spoke. Porter is a renowned professor at Harvard. For many of you, you must be familiar with some of his research work such as Porter’s 5 Forces that describes the various market forces and his book competitive advantage of nations. He has yet again come up with another strategy concept called Creating Shared Value which is the topic of discussion today. Porter essentially opened his session by saying the above -
Creating shared value is not corporate social responsibility or CR, it is according to Porter, beyond CSR. CSV is not about being a good citizen, but rather when companies build strategies, these strategies need to integrate and incorporate social and environmental aspects. Some academics believe by isolating CSR / Philanthropy and call them out separately, fail to see the picture of really what business needs to consider when they develop their strategy and refine their business model.

This spurs also self sustaining economic growth when certain poorly served customer groups are better served as a result.I have some interesting examples afterwards.
Supply chain efficiency, lower environmental impact, access to innovationEnabling local clusters mean through your value chain and product and service development, you are the catalyst to build a local sustainable business eco-system. The most obvious one is Silicon Valley. London, Ontario – before was automotive, now is life sciences The industry is rooted in the diverse areas of research and expertise developed at such institutions as the Robarts Research Institute (Canada's largest privately-funded medical research facility), CSTAR - The Canadian Surgical Technologies and Advanced Robotics Centre, Lawson Health Research Institute, the National Research Council of Canada and the London Regional Cancer Centre.

Wholefoods is another great example of shared value creation.I shopped at Wholefoods once and I was intrigued by the service level, so friendly, so happy, eager to chat. I love people when they bother to entertain my kids during check out. I mildly complained as to why my chit was so expensive, she said this beats buying from Walmart. She said she used to work at Walmart and so did a few of her colleauges. She said people that work at Walmart are bad people, but they are being treated like human being. They are the same people.
WFM = 96.65 Oct 21 2012; 22.21 Oct 21 2002.CAGR = 15.84%KR = 25.12 Oct 21 2012; 13.61 Oct 21 2002CAGR = 6.21%
From the Walmartexeample, I found a great presentation done by John MacKey Co-Founder and Co-CEO of WholeFoods
I see this as very similar to Porter’s SVC
Most important thing I want to highlight here are:Higher purposeReconciles caring and profitability through higher synergies Holistic ecosystem of business as a complex adaptive systemRequires genuine transformation – not just lipservice
Transform thinking and approaches to create economic growthBusinesses are not charitable giversMay be we need to revisit our value chain and identify our long-term approach, but first they often ask what is our purpose
