McKinsey 7S Framework Analysis: Current Situation Issues Strategy:
TTL’s strategy is to become the industry leadership due to increase in demand for higher education in the 1. 1K by providing excellent and quality training to the dentists. TTL not only provides training and skills to its delegates. The courses build a career path for dentists and can lead to P. G. qualifications, Diploma and a Master’s degree. The industry offers high competition in the education sector. Private limited companies and universities are major competition for ITL Changing GDC Regulations by the NHS and further restriction on Dentists practicing in the UK, favor the growth of the industry.
Lack of strategic clarity No core strategy in terms of consumption, positioning, competitive advantage and value creation unclear. Structure Bureaucratic structure- A hierarchal structure will defined roles and responsibility. Reporting mechanism to managers and also to CEO. Quick and centralised decision making process as the CEO can be contacted immediately. Departments and functions coordinate activities verbally and also via emails. Whole area of strategic marketing management overlooked or under employed. Systems: The main systems driving the business will be communication and use of esources.
Repetition of courses and structure and learning from the mistakes. No strategic systems and processes in place to leverage resources and data Shared Values: Corporate values are mainly serviced focused. No compromise in quality and company could spend a reasonable amount of money to extend these values. Internal culture is individualistic. Not much communication with the teams. Lack of department collaboration.
