Examples of SBUs in the following topics:
-
- The modular structure focuses on dividing the business into small, tightly knit strategic business units (SBUs), which focus on specific elements of the organizational process.
- Interdependence among the units is limited because the focus of many SBUs is more inward than outward and because loyalty within SBUs tends to be very strong.
-
- Organization - Utilizing an organized business structure or corporate framework, often through strategic business units (SBUs), provides substantial value in centralizing processes and assessing needs.
- Technology - Finally, improving upon these processes within SBUs via leveraging the appropriate data and information will drive strategic acquisition of beneficial technological improvements based upon current trends.
-
- Business strategy refers to the aggregated strategies of a single business firm or a strategic business unit (SBU) in a diversified corporation.
- Many companies feel that a functional organizational structure is not an efficient way to organize activities, so they often re-engineer according to processes or SBUs.
- An SBU is treated as an internal profit center by corporate headquarters.
-
- The stages of a project within the strategic-planning discipline provide a step-by-step approach to generating and implementing an effective strategy, for either a corporation or a strategic business unit (SBU).
-
- Goal setting, similar to MBO and SMART, is a simple method for strategists to establish and enforce specific goals within the organization or strategic business unit (SBU).
-
- Each of the strategic business units (SBUs), or facets of the organization, complements one another to create an ability greater than the sum of its parts.
-
- From a managerial perspective, competition generally falls into the external environment, though it can also take shape in the internal environment through rivalry between strategic business units (SBUs).
