  • Fortune 50 (F50): While There Is a Large Amount of Innovation Going
    Fortune 50 (F50): While there is a large amount of innovation going on in start- ups, Fortune 500 (F500) companies which are all about scale and results, are still responsible for a large part of the impactful innovation driving the economy, if not directly from their internal powerhouse, through acquisitions of start-ups that can provide them with the innovation format and content they need. In many company lists published in the media (Fortune 2018 Business by design List, Fortune 10 Most Successful Companies, Fortune 10 Most Profitable Companies, BCG Most Innovative Companies), the large majority of companies been cited are still large companies, independently if they are F500 or not. Some have stated the F500 is a very US centric list of corporations that does not express reality of design executive presence in large corporations throughout the world (e.g.: Italy, Germany, Japan, France, UK, etc.) where designers might have executive roles. There are two explanations for this decision, one is based on recent research that clearly states that ‘the United States is still considered the world’s number 1 economy and has been so since 1871 (Investopedia, 2017). Though this might be disputed because China has been gaining the U.S for a number of years, if one looks at nominal GDP, the U.S. maintains its leadership, followed by China and Japan. According to research on this topic, ‘large U.S. corporations also play a major role on the global stage, with more than a fifth of companies on the Fortune Global 500 coming from the United States’ (Focus Economics, 2018).

This paper has been modified from its original version published in Chapter 5 of the book published by Routledge in 2012. Innovation in Pricing The second approach proposes to design this role by grouping all functions associated with value management (marketing, innovation, pricing, value, selling) and to fold them under one function reporting to the CEO. This approach resembles a more traditional one, closer to the role of Chief Marketing Officer with innovation and strategic responsibilities.

  • The Chief Customer Officer a New Leader for a New CPG Landscape
    Consumer Practice The Chief Customer Officer A New Leader for a New CPG Landscape Customers today are armed with unprecedented information, choices and purchasing channels, spurring some organizations to establish customer-focused roles at the senior level. A recent study by the CCO Council predicts that the chief customer officer (CCO) will soon become “a staple of modern business,” as more established organizations hire C-level professionals to lead the charge to create strong — and profitable — company- customer relationships. The rate of the role’s adoption has grown dramatically: In 2000, there were fewer than 10 active CCOs; in 2014, there were more than 400 worldwide. Ten percent of Fortune 500 companies have already adopted the role, a percentage that jumps to 22 percent among the Fortune 100. We have witnessed this trend accelerate among consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies globally. Demand has grown from our clients for senior-level, strategic, customer- focused leaders as many in the industry struggle to achieve top-line growth and adapt to one of the most powerful forces today: e-commerce. McKinsey & Company projects that online will account for 10 to 30 percent of total CPG industry sales growth in the next five years — equating to $15 billion to $50 billion.1 Despite the immense opportunity, the sector has been slower to adapt to a world where consumers expect seamless experiences across channels, from mobile devices to brick-and-mortar stores. Some organizations are installing CCOs to help bridge that gap, ensure consistency across channels, and collect and interpret consumer insights from the use of e-commerce.
