Chapter 2. The Value Manager. p23-p45
今日読んだ章では、value manager（日本語訳は？）の役割・仕事内容について、EG Corporationという会社を例に挙げて説明しています。 6段階から成るCorporate Strategy Frameworkに添った形で、Value managerの仕事を概観します。 この章は、後に続く章で扱うテーマの「前振り」的な位置づけになっていて、より詳しい概念説明は後の章に委ねられています。
According to this chapter, there are three aspects that a value manager should keep in mind. First, a value manager should focus on long-term cash flow rather than short-time earnings. Second, he or she should judge businesses by using clear measurement. Third, he or she has to instill the value creation philosophy throughout the corporation.
After reviewing six steps of the corporate strategy framework, a value manager takes further steps. For example, he or she sets value-oriented targets, performance measurement systems and new compensation systems and so on.
This chapter takes a brief look at how a value manager deals with the corporate value creation issues, which provides concrete image of the roles of a value manager. More detail techniques or concepts will be explained in subsequent chapters.
