Organization Success Strategy Analysis

Reference from discussion is listed in the attachment below

How would you explain the success of James Houghton and the Signature Theatre using the “five-question strategy playbook” and Wolfe’s “living organization” as your frames of reference? Be specific.

1. What is your winning aspiration? (What to you stand for and believe deeply in?)
2. Where will you play? (Who will you serve, and who will either help or compete against you?)
3. How will you win? (How will you create unique value?)
4. Which capabilities must be in place (to win)? (What skills, competencies, and capabilities do you need now and in the future?)
5. What management systems are required? (Do you have a supporting culture, structure, systems, and appropriate measures to implement a strategy?)

How would you explain the success of James Houghton and the Signature Theatre using the “five-question strategy playbook” and Wolfe’s “living organization” as your frames of reference? Be specific.

Then, review the Joseph (2009) article on implementing a balanced scorecard (a way to measure one’s strategy playbook). Recall that you read this article in a prior MBA course. Pay particular attention to pages 119–123.

1. Using the strategy map illustrated on p. 122 as a guide, create a similar strategy map for the Signature Theatre (circa 2014). Attach your map to your original post in the Discussion board.
2. Based on your strategy map and earlier response, what should Houghton do in the future? Why? How?
