A <strong>for</strong>mal role <strong>for</strong> boards<br />
Traditional governance practices prescribed that boards were responsible <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
company‘s vision and mission, and that management would look after <strong>the</strong> strategy.<br />
According <strong>to</strong> this division of responsibilities, <strong>the</strong> board‘s oversight role versus management‘s<br />
execution role were defined. With <strong>the</strong> overhaul of governance practices<br />
and processes which has taken place over<br />
<strong>the</strong> last ten years, <strong>the</strong>re has been significant<br />
movement in <strong>the</strong>se lines of responsibility,<br />
with boards taking on a greater and more<br />
<strong>for</strong>mal role in <strong>the</strong> area of strategy <strong>set</strong>ting and<br />
implementation. Part 3, section 3.4(b) of<br />
National Policy 58-201, Corporate<br />
Governance Guidelines establishes <strong>the</strong><br />
board‘s responsibility with regards <strong>to</strong><br />
strategy as follows:<br />
The board should adopt a written mandate<br />
in which it explicitly acknowledges<br />
responsibility <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> stewardship of <strong>the</strong><br />
issuer, including responsibility <strong>for</strong> adopting<br />
a strategic planning process and approving,<br />
on at least an annual basis, a strategic plan<br />
which takes in<strong>to</strong> account, among o<strong>the</strong>r things,<br />
<strong>the</strong> opportunities and risks of <strong>the</strong> business.<br />
The movement <strong>to</strong> put this guideline in<strong>to</strong> practice is evidenced most clearly by many<br />
boards by <strong>the</strong> advent of <strong>the</strong> annual board strategy retreat. However, <strong>to</strong> be a truly effective<br />
process, discussions around strategy should be linked <strong>to</strong> each board meeting.<br />

A framework <strong>for</strong> strategy development<br />
The process <strong>for</strong> developing a focused and comprehensive strategy clearly calls <strong>for</strong> collaboration between management<br />
and <strong>the</strong> board. However, once <strong>the</strong> two groups have agreed <strong>to</strong> work <strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r, <strong>the</strong> issue <strong>the</strong>n becomes<br />
how <strong>the</strong> board can add value <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> process of developing <strong>the</strong> organization‘s strategy without stepping over <strong>the</strong><br />
line and in<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> role of management in <strong>the</strong> process.<br />
Included below is a framework which outlines six distinct steps required <strong>to</strong> develop an effective and collaborative<br />
strategy. The framework also <strong>set</strong>s out who, management or <strong>the</strong> board, should take <strong>the</strong> lead in each step.<br />
Mgmt.<br />
Board<br />
Develop a shared world view<br />
Identify risk <strong>to</strong>lerance<br />
Current business portfolio<br />
Approve strategic options<br />
Build future business portfolio<br />

Step 1— Develop a shared world view—management and <strong>the</strong> board should share a consistent view of <strong>the</strong><br />
world. In developing this shared view, consideration should be given <strong>to</strong> bo<strong>the</strong>r macro issues such as <strong>the</strong> worldwide<br />
competitive environment in which <strong>the</strong> organization operates as well as more micro issues such as <strong>the</strong> organization‘s<br />
competitive positioning, as well as <strong>the</strong> specific, individual requirements of <strong>the</strong> organization‘s cus<strong>to</strong>mers.<br />
Both management and <strong>the</strong> board will bring specific value <strong>to</strong> this step in <strong>the</strong> process: <strong>the</strong> board by bringing <strong>the</strong><br />
individual direc<strong>to</strong>rs‘ world views and experience, and management by bringing it‘s knowledge of <strong>the</strong> organization‘s<br />
cus<strong>to</strong>mers and competi<strong>to</strong>rs. In considering this step in <strong>the</strong> process, it is important <strong>to</strong> consider <strong>the</strong> diversity of <strong>the</strong><br />
board, <strong>to</strong> ensure that ―group think‖ does not overrun <strong>the</strong> process. A diverse board, made up of individuals from<br />
various industry backgrounds, diverse professional backgrounds, and different areas of <strong>the</strong> world can bring depth<br />
and true value <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> process.<br />
Step 2— Identify risk <strong>to</strong>lerance—having identified a shared world view, management and <strong>the</strong> board must work<br />
<strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r <strong>to</strong> establish a risk profile and <strong>to</strong> determine <strong>the</strong> risk appetite of <strong>the</strong> organization. All opportunities have<br />
some risk attached, and without <strong>the</strong> establishment of <strong>the</strong> risk <strong>to</strong>lerance of <strong>the</strong> organization, solid decisions regarding<br />
opportunities that arise, or <strong>the</strong> assessment of any strategic option cannot be made.<br />
Step 3— Current business portfolio—identifying <strong>the</strong> health of <strong>the</strong> current business portfolio, and determining,<br />
based on this review, which strategic options are viable is <strong>the</strong> role of management. This is a step in <strong>the</strong> process<br />
which requires detailed knowledge and understanding of <strong>the</strong> day <strong>to</strong> day operations and plans of <strong>the</strong> organization,<br />
and as a result <strong>the</strong> board will be unlikely <strong>to</strong> have <strong>the</strong> depth of knowledge required <strong>to</strong> per<strong>for</strong>m this step. Management<br />
should take <strong>the</strong> lead role and <strong>the</strong>n bring this in<strong>for</strong>mation back <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> board <strong>to</strong> ensure that all decisions are<br />
based on a consistent understanding knowledge.<br />
Step 4— Approve strategic options—both management and <strong>the</strong> board must work <strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r <strong>to</strong> develop a range<br />
of strategic options that fit <strong>the</strong> capacity of <strong>the</strong> organization. These options must fit in<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> framework developed<br />
as a result of steps 1 through 3 in that <strong>the</strong>y are responsive <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> shared world view of management and <strong>the</strong><br />
board, fit within <strong>the</strong> risk <strong>to</strong>lerances developed and be viable <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> organization in consideration of <strong>the</strong> health of<br />
it‘s current business portfolio. Typically, management will develop and outline <strong>to</strong> strategic options, and will <strong>the</strong>n<br />
bring <strong>the</strong>se options <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> board <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir consideration and <strong>to</strong> ensure a clear understanding of <strong>the</strong> future is unders<strong>to</strong>od<br />
by both parties.<br />
© Deloitte & Touche LLP and affiliated entities. <strong>On</strong> The <strong>Agenda</strong> 2
Step 5— Build future business portfolio—as in step 3, where management <strong>to</strong>ok <strong>the</strong> lead in identifying <strong>the</strong><br />
health of <strong>the</strong> current business portfolio, in this step, management will again take <strong>the</strong> lead role in determining how<br />
<strong>to</strong> build <strong>the</strong> future business portfolio. Having developed a strategic direction with <strong>the</strong> board, management should<br />
take <strong>the</strong> lead in determining how <strong>to</strong> achieve <strong>the</strong> strategic alternatives, bringing <strong>the</strong> options <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> board <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
input as required.<br />
Step 6— Moni<strong>to</strong>r <strong>the</strong> plan—In this final step in developing an effective strategy, <strong>the</strong> board should take <strong>the</strong> lead<br />
role, and ensure <strong>the</strong>y <strong>the</strong> moni<strong>to</strong>r <strong>the</strong> strategic plan and not just <strong>the</strong> results. Effective and successful strategic<br />
plans are not static, <strong>the</strong>y must be moni<strong>to</strong>red and altered as <strong>the</strong> underlying market dynamics change. The board<br />
must keep its‘ eye on <strong>the</strong> plan, and, in collaboration with management consistently review <strong>the</strong> plan, <strong>the</strong> assumptions<br />
used in it‘s development, and <strong>the</strong> shared world view developed, as current events change <strong>the</strong> world and <strong>the</strong><br />
competitive environment in which <strong>the</strong> organization operates. Fur<strong>the</strong>rmore, working <strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r, <strong>the</strong> board and management<br />
should <strong>set</strong> key per<strong>for</strong>mance indica<strong>to</strong>rs related <strong>to</strong> strategy, and regularly review <strong>the</strong>se indica<strong>to</strong>rs.<br />
Next steps<br />
Having established a framework <strong>to</strong> develop an effective strategic plan, <strong>the</strong> next issue becomes how <strong>to</strong> ensure that<br />
<strong>the</strong> strategy remains a core focus <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> organization as a whole, throughout <strong>the</strong> whole year, and not just a <strong>to</strong>pic<br />
discussed during <strong>the</strong> annual board retreat. Strategy and <strong>the</strong> progress <strong>the</strong> organization is making <strong>to</strong>wards achieving<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir strategic goals should be discussed at each board meeting. To ensure <strong>the</strong>re is a continual linkage back<br />
<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> strategy at each board meeting, time should be allocated at <strong>the</strong> start of each meeting <strong>to</strong> briefly reaffirm <strong>the</strong><br />
strategy among <strong>the</strong> board members. As well, every significant board approval, whe<strong>the</strong>r it be budgetary, operating<br />
plan, capital investment, or executive appointments, should be made in relation <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> strategic plan. In this manner,<br />
<strong>the</strong> organization‘s strategy will remain <strong>the</strong> core focus <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> organization and <strong>the</strong> objectives established in<br />
<strong>the</strong> plan are sure <strong>to</strong> be realized.<br />
