Introduction

Businesses today seek the perfect way to prosper and outperform competition. Leadership is being called upon to create a premium company valuation: this is the ultimate goal for any executive. Their vision must provide a sense of purpose to the organization, and set the right yet attainable objectives. Behind every successful organization, there are competent leaders who are able to make their vision a reality and motivate those around them.

Valuation is the dominant force that drives the company strategic intent; and if premium valuation is the sine qua non of business success, then its elusiveness should be no surprise. Well-managed companies will always have a series of measures prepared to deal with the most immediate problems. Businesses that consistently deliver valuation growth follow clear operational principles and management disciplines and try to hedge their bets against the vicissitudes of a sometimes unpredictable business world; they minimize risk by never putting all their eggs in one basket. Steady, well performing companies have multi front strategies that keep them moving forward as a whole even when some of the initiatives failed. The following Six Principlesª will drive growth and profitability to create premium valuation.

The six proven principlesª include:

The six proven principles include

  • Spread the risk. Never depend on just one initiative; you need to create a portfolio of many initiatives. In short, diversify, diversify, diversify …

  • Take small bites. Don’t let your quest for premium valuation become an unmanageable challenge. Set up smaller valuation objectives in several areas, and then outgrow them.

  • Balance the strategies. Short and long-term driven growth can have different strengths and weaknesses. Decide which strategy works best for you.

  • Commit to superior value propositions. Nothing spurs value creation faster than superior value propositions , including disruptive technologies and customer-driven organizations

  • Expand valuation growth capabilities. To grow at faster rates, we must focus on an efficient utilization of the existing resource pool; rather than focus on market demands.

  • Manage value growth. There is a need to establish a distinct system for managing a growth portfolio through varied market conditions. This system should coordinate and comprise a multitude of aspects, including attitudes, behavior, information, review processes, roles and responsibilities.
