Dynamic strategic marketing planning: The paradox of concurrently reconfiguring and implementing strategic marketing planning
提出动态战略营销规划(DSMP)作为高阶能力,需同时协调营销规划、高管主导的战略实施和流程资源重构。基于313位CEO数据,发现DSMP能克服普通营销规划的创新刚性,同时提升创新性和财务绩效。
Traditional marketing planning may not be as effective in today’s challenging environments for achieving the dual imperative of meeting objectives and continuously improving market fit. Therefore, we introduce the concept of dynamic strategic marketing planning (DSMP) as a higher-order capability that requires the concurrent orchestration of marketing planning, senior management-led strategic implementation, and change as operationalized through the reconfiguration of processes and resources. With responses from 313 CEOs, we demonstrate that DSMP does overcome the innovativeness rigidities found in ordinary marketing planning capabilities. While DSMP is associated with higher levels of innovativeness, it also achieves higher levels of financial performance over ordinary marketing planning capabilities. Our findings seek to transform marketing planning practice by requiring that its implementation receives the attention of senior managers and combines reconfiguration processes that promote the renewal of plans and capabilities.
