The Future of Value Creation

Webinar Details

Most company leaders believe they know the essential ways their organization creates value. But how deep does that understanding go, and could some core beliefs be wrong? In fact, many companies today are limited by using the wrong metrics, focusing almost exclusively on the profit and loss statement, while overlooking the power of free cash flow and return on capital as key ingredients in total shareholder return. In this HBR webinar, Michael Mauboussin will share a framework to trace the process of value creation from the basic economic forces that shape a company's performance—sales, costs, and investments—to the resulting impact on value drivers. In addition, he will discuss: • How to determine the right metrics to guide organizational value and growth. • How to use the resulting insights, with help from data analytics and artificial intelligence, to identify value creation and growth opportunities. • How to communicate the key drivers of success, so that frontline employees have the information they need to understand the impact of their day-to-day actions on company cash flow as well as revenue. • How to strategically allocate capital and resources to focus on the best bets. To learn more about the performance metrics that drive value creation, join Michael Mauboussin and HBR on March 11.
