Nearly 80 percent of CEOs of multinational corporations (MNCs) have identified "complexity" as the primary challenge for the next five years, and yet far fewer feel prepared. This is also true for companies active in the Chinese market, which are starting to feel squeezed by a more mature market demand and higher price and margin pressures.
This session will explain how to map out a company's complexity level along three dimensions – product, process, and organization – to quickly understand where the real margin killers are, and how complexity costs are often mistaken for fixed or variable costs. Furthermore, using several real-life case studies from MNCs in the US, the presentation will show how operating models can be improved, resulting in substantial cost savings and higher profitability.
