Strategy Setting
I have extensive experience both setting and delivering strategy in large complex organisations working against budget, resource and time constraints. I am well versed in portfolio management, ensuring long term strategic bets are balanced with short term improvements. I thrive in environments where teams are empowered to solve the most pressing business problems in ways that matter most to their customers.
Some of the things I have accomplished:
Defined and executed the first vision, mission and strategy for Tesco's high value repeat shoppers, securing multiple year funding from the C-Suite. This strategy delivered over £100m in incremental revenue by increasing the % of repeated purchases in basket by 11.9% YoY (61.2% to 68.5%) and increasing the % of customers returning after 7 days by 20% YoY (38.5% to 46.2%)
Authored a first of its kind white paper on the necessities of a machine learning approach to solving the Infinite Choice Problem. This became the foundation by which the Shopping Product Team was setup, working across a new theoretical framework called Planned Choice. This theorised that every purchase decision could be seen on a spectrum from entirely planned to entirely unplanned
Led initial strategy work on defining Inspire (unplanned purchasing behaviour) within the Shopping Product Team. This was made up of 30 colleagues from 9 seperate disciplines and unified Tesco's approach in inspiring millions of customers to try something new
Where you'll see me adding value:
Applying strategy frameworks such as Martin Eriksson's Decision Stack to create clarity from company vision through to product roadmap
Building consensus with key stakeholders to ensure product strategy is aligned with wider business priorities
Providing clarity from features at a sprint level up to impact on company wide objectives
Building out a balanced portofolio of bets that deliver both short and long term benefits
By bringing my experience in:
Setting product strategy that aligns with business priorities
Articulating the trade-offs and resources required to achieve those strategies
Building consensus and aligning stakeholders behind those strategies
Through a value led approach to product management
Learn what drives and inspires me
