The Diversity Imperative: 14th Annual Australian Chief Executive Study

According to the third installment of a biennial survey L.E.K. Consulting conducted on the healthy living marketplace, U.S. adult consumers spend, on average, a reported $635 on nutritional supplements each year: $433 on vitamins, minerals and herbal supplements (VMS), and $202 on sports nutrition products. And yet, within both categories, there is still room for further growth. Indeed, when asked about their prior month’s purchases, just 55% of consumers who make H&W a priority said they bought VMS, and only 25% had purchased sports nutrition products. In other words, for retailers and brands there are some significant opportunities — and even a lurking threat — to be found.

A.T. Kearney reached out to more than 2,000 executives, business leaders, and heads of strategy functions to discuss their thoughts on the state of strategy today. Our findings indicate that while most leaders continue to believe in strategy, the return on their strategy initiatives has largely eroded over the past decade. In fact, when asked what it takes to secure a prosperous future, more than 80 percent of executives consider agility as important or more important than strategy when it comes to securing a prosperous future. Fortunately, the findings also point to promising ways to reclaim strategy—including using future-focused tools and techniques and engaging the organization in strategy formulation.

Think nutritional supplements and skincare are of interest only to consumers of a certain age? Think again. According to L.E.K. Consulting’s third installment of a biennial survey of the healthy living marketplace, this one focusing on nutrition and skincare, some 80% of health and wellness (H&W) consumers across generations — from millennials to baby boomers — are highly engaged with both categories. The survey captured insights from more than 1,600 respondents, representing roughly 77% of the U.S. adult population who identify with H&W themes, and generated eight key insights across categories. Together these insights make clear that consumer interest in nutritional supplements and skincare often lasts a lifetime.

Japanese consumers’ behaviors and finances are gradually recovering to normal, though their responses indicate a slight increase in pessimism. The long-lasting impact of COVID-19 is prolonging Japanese consumers’ intent to stay conservative about spending across categories. In a further sign of cautiousness, the trend of shrinking pessimism over the past few years reversed for the first time. Meanwhile, people’s demand for travel is rising, considering the next seasonal vacations.

Engagement has become the new holy grail for satisfied employees and a key issue for business leaders. But what does it mean to be engaged? Bain & Company is redefining the employee experience with a system for building inspiration through productive team discussions, candid frequent feedback and an outer loop for addressing systemic issues. Inspired employees should be everyone’s priority to fuel customer loyalty and organic, sustainable growth. We will share the results from our latest study, describe the mechanisms required and the behaviors to aspire towards – all key ingredients of a customer centered Employee Inspiration system.

Employee Inspiration: How to Create Energy That Drives Better Customer Outcomes

Qualtrics

Tips for the Food sector: To keep up with this constantly shifting consumer behavior, look for early signs by using Google Trends to see how demand for certain food products or delivery services is changing to meet people’s needs. Tips for Travel marketers: Our APAC travel recovery itinerary revealed that people have local trips and safety in mind, so marketers should seek to provide safety information upfront and present local product offerings and fun activities. Tips for keeping people entertained: Though some people who signed up for a new entertainment source might stay, there’s also a higher likelihood of churn when their trial period ends. If you saw an increase in people signing up for your online products and services, focus on retention to keep them coming back, especially if you offered a free trial during the pandemic. Tips for merchants: Make sure you integrate digital payment options for your consumers. Digital payments are expected to see a continued boost post-COVID-19, and trust in e-Wallets will likely increase. Although there is still some instability, the internet sector in SEA is set to emerge stronger than ever in a post-COVID-19 world. The digital economy remains a bright spot in a very challenging economic environment, and e-Commerce remains a key driver of growth. The biggest takeaway for brands and marketers is the need to focus on people and their changing habits online, as well as keeping up with changing trends, as we continue to understand what our new normal will look like in the future.

Big Data and advanced analytics are critical topics for executives today. But many still aren't sure how to turn that promise into value. This presentation provides an overview of 16 examples and use cases that lay out the different ways companies have approached the issue and found value: everything from pricing flexibility to customer preference management to credit risk analysis to fraud protection and discount targeting. For the latest on Big Data & Advanced Analytics: http://mckinseyonmarketingandsales.com/topics/big-data

Big Data and Advanced Analytics

McKinsey on Marketing & Sales

The best companies boost revenues by not just building advanced pricing analytics programs but also developing relevant capabilities - people, processes, tools. A successful revenue growth program is a journey, and this presentation highlights the four areas where companies need to focus to become leaders. Brian Elliott (CEO of McKinsey Periscope) gave a version of this presentation at the Professional Pricing Society event in Oct., 2014.

The Journey to Revenue Growth

McKinsey on Marketing & Sales

Why do companies need to manage the entire customer experience? New analysis reveals that the entire customer journey - the series of interactions with a brand - is more important than any single touchpoint experience. Leading companies identify and effectively manage a few "key journeys." When companies perfect managing the entire customer journey, they reap significant benefits—including enhanced customer and employee satisfaction, reduced customer churn, increased revenue, lower costs, improved organizational collaboration, and competitive advantage. Presented at the Harvard Business Review webinar. For more on customer decision journeys: http://mckinseyonmarketingandsales.com/topics/customer-decision-journey

Transforming Customer Experience: From Moments to Journeys

McKinsey on Marketing & Sales

For companies to be successful today, they have to plan for customer journeys not just customer experiences. In the digital age where engaging with customers across the entire purchase process, the experience with the brand can as important - if not more so - than the product itself. The best companies are aligned on their customer journey strategy, are truly omnichannel, get and keep the right talent, know what their return on marketing investment is, have campaigns tailored to their customers, and are agile. David Edelman made this presentation at the Financial Times Future of Marketing Summit.

In recent years loyalty programs that reward buyers for sticking with the brand have steadily grown in popularity. Between 2008 and 2012, U.S. loyalty memberships increased by 10 percent per year – reaching over 23 memberships per household. But for all their growth and popularity, do loyalty programs really pay off for the companies that offer them? A recent McKinsey study suggests that on average, they do not – and may in fact destroy value for program owners.

Women Matter 2012: Making the breakthrough, examines the gender-diversity programs of 235 large European companies. The report investigates what initiatives companies are taking, what is working well or less well, and why. The research found that most companies are now taking gender diversity issues extremely seriously, devoting real resources to redressing the gender imbalance. But many companies also expressed frustration that their efforts do not always create the expected impact.

Companies that want to turn excellent customer experience into growth need to master Customer Journeys. Customer Journeys (the set of interactions a customer has with a brand to complete a task) and less moments of truth are what matter for a customer. Companies that master not only see an improvement in customer experience, loyalty, and operational productivity; they also see above-market growth.

For ten years or more, China has been a uniquely powerful engine of the global economy, regularly posting high single-figure or even double-digit annual increases in GDP. More recently, growth has slowed, prompting sharp falls in international commodity prices and casting a shadow over the near-term prospects for developed and emerging markets. What will happen next? Pessimists struggle to see what China can do for an encore after what they say was an extraordinary, one-off period of catching up. Optimists believe that during the next 10 to 15 years, China has the potential to continue to outperform the rest of the world and to take its place as a full-fledged advanced economy (see summary infographic, “What’s next for China?”).

Spanish consumers are pessimistic about the economy. Rising prices, unemployment, and the invasion of Ukraine are top concerns, and consumers are trading down. In Spain, consumers are most concerned about rising prices, unemployment, and the invasion of Ukraine. Their views of the current and future state of the economy remain pessimistic, at a level comparable to attitudes in the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic. Spend for groceries and gasoline soared, while consumers reduced money directed to savings and spent less on non-essentials. Of the 80 percent of consumers who have assumed new shopping behaviors in the last three months in search of value for money, more than half tried private labels. Trade-down in retailers visited and brands is evident, with the key drivers of choice being prices and value for money. However, 39 percent of consumers say they plan to splurge in 2022.

Spend for groceries and gasoline soared, while consumers reduced spend in non-essential categories. Almost two-thirds of consumers have assumed new shopping behaviors in the last four to six weeks, with more than four out of ten trying private label.

COVID-19 is no longer among Italian consumers’ top concerns. Consumers remain pessimistic about economic recovery and inflation; many aim to reduce their spend. Italian consumers are increasingly worried about the effects of rising prices and the invasion of Ukraine. Unemployment is a number-two concern for respondents in Gen Z, millennials, and the low-income group. Almost six out of ten share a negative view of Italy’s current economic state; hopes for an economic recovery are lower than during the entire COVID-19 pandemic. Consumers observed the highest price increases in groceries and gasoline. To cope with inflation, Italian consumers are changing their purchase behavior, shifting toward discounters and private labels. The leading factors for these choices are prices and value for money.

German consumers are pessimistic about the economy. Rising prices and the invasion of Ukraine are top concerns, and we see a significant down-trade in shopping. In Germany, consumers’ top concerns are rising prices and the invasion of Ukraine, followed by climate change and COVID-19. Pessimism about the current and future state of the economy has eased but remains at a level comparable to attitudes in the early months of the COVID-19-pandemic. As spend for groceries and gasoline soared, consumers reduced money directed to savings and spent less on non-essentials. Of the 70 percent of consumers who have assumed new shopping behaviors in the last three months, more than four out of ten tried private labels.

For consumers in France, inflation eclipses other sources of concern. It triggers changes in shopping behaviors as consumers seek better value for money. French consumers’ optimism regarding the economic recovery is stable at around 14 percent—a level last seen in the depths of COVID-19 lockdowns. Top sources of concern are rising prices (cited by 54 percent), followed by the invasion of Ukraine (13 percent) and climate change (10 percent) and far ahead of COVID-19 (4 percent). Nine out of ten survey respondents perceive high price inflation in the country. These trends have implications for brand and retailer loyalty: of the 73 percent of respondents saying they have tried new shopping behaviors in the last three months, 40 percent say they purchased private labels. Household products remain the category most affected by this trading-down trend.

Australian consumers, in view of the omicron variant, are feeling less optimistic about economic recovery than last year and remain cautious on spending. In Australia, optimism about economic recovery has declined since the November 2020 pulse survey but remains higher than at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Six in ten consumers predict routines will return to normal only after June 2022; two-thirds do not plan to splurge in 2022. Although Australian households increased their spending in the past month, net intent to spend remains negative. Digital and omnichannel adoption continues in most categories, and intent to use out-of-home services rose. Seventy-five percent of consumers have addressed the rise of omicron by changing how they engage in out-of-home activities. Most consumers have tried a different brand or retailer, especially to switch brands in pursuit of value.

Indian consumers’ optimism has remained high since October 2021 and has reached the highest levels across other Asian markets since COVID-19 started. Nearly three-quarters of India’s consumers are optimistic about economic recovery, and net intent to spend is growing and positive across many categories. Omnichannel usage continues across the majority of categories, and social-media influence is high, especially for Gen Z and millennials. More than 90 percent are engaging in social media and entertainment platforms. There is an upward trend for new technology, such as crypto and augmented reality/virtual reality, and consumers intend to continue digital activities as the COVID-19 crisis subsides. About 40 percent of consumers are engaging in out-of-home activities, especially among the vaccinated segment. Most consumers have tried new shopping behaviors such as new retail outlets and new brands.

Indonesian consumers remain optimistic on the economy, expecting higher incomes and spending. Many tried and plan to keep using digital services and omnichannel methods. In Indonesia, optimism about future economic conditions increased more than 25 percent over September 2020 from an already high base, boosted by planning for the upcoming holiday season. Eight out of ten consumers say they will dine out, shop for gifts, and redecorate. Out-of-home activities are generally rising but remain far below prepandemic levels. Optimism about the economy is tempered by views of household finances; half predict finances won’t return to normal before June. The loyalty shake-up continues, with 60 percent citing value as their primary reason to try a new brand. New digital behaviors are starting to show evidence of stickiness: 60 percent say they intend to use new shopping methods when the pandemic subsides.

Most Korean consumers expect that normalcy will return to routines only after June 2022, yet there are signs of pre-COVID-19 routines returning. Korean customers have been less optimistic than those in other countries about the economic recovery. But optimism in Korea is much higher now than two years ago. Half of consumers indicate a desire to splurge, with intent to do so being the strongest in Gen Z and millennials. One-eighth of consumers say they have returned to out-of-home activities.

As inflation rises, French consumer hopes for economic recovery wane, with optimism sinking back to the lows of lockdown. Optimism regarding the economic recovery has decreased to 14 percent in France—levels last seen in the depths of COVID-19 lockdown. Top sources of concern are rising prices, the invasion of Ukraine, and political uncertainty. Nine out of ten survey respondents perceive high price inflation in the country, and 60 percent expect prices to rise further over the next year. These trends have implications for loyalty: in the search for higher purchasing power, 69 percent of respondents have tried new shopping behaviors in the last four to six weeks. Household products remain the most impacted category, with 65 percent of consumers switching for cheaper options.

Pessimism about recovery is at an all-time high in the United Kingdom. Rising prices are the top concern, with consumers significantly trading down in stores and products. UK consumers are feeling great economic uncertainty. With energy and transport costs eating away at consumer savings and non-food spend, the top reasons given by survey participants for economic anxiety are the gas supply, supply-chain shortages, and energy issues. Consumers report the highest perceived price increases in groceries and household supplies, with two-thirds becoming more conscious about energy usage. Half of consumers changed their grocery brands in the last four to six weeks, with trading down a clear trend: price and value were the strongest drivers here.

Rising prices and the Ukraine invasion are top concerns for German consumers, fueling a general slide into economic pessimism. German consumers are experiencing intense unease regarding the state of the economy and its future outlook—with public sentiment sinking lower than at any time during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Almost two-thirds have assumed new shopping behaviors in the last four to six weeks, with more than forty percent trying private-label brands. There’s a clear trade-down trend in stores visited and brands chosen, with prices and value for money as key drivers.

Across the continent, the pattern holds: Europeans are anxious about the state of their countries’ economies, and worried about the future. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and price inflation overshadow other concerns, and consumer anxieties in turn are impacting confidence in household finances and national economies, especially among vulnerable populations. Worried about spending more on food, transport and fuel, consumers report cutting back on less essential items. Most say they’ve changed their shopping behaviors in recent months, trading down to more affordable brands and retailers. With no relief clearly in sight, 2022 continues to prove a challenging year for the continental consumer.

Spanish consumers are primarily concerned about inflation and the invasion of Ukraine, and are becoming increasingly pessimistic about the economy. Only 14 percent of Spanish consumers are optimistic about economic recovery, with concerns focused on inflation and the invasion of Ukraine. Four in ten have an increasingly negative sense of the economic outlook—mostly due to petrol and supply-chain shortages, as well as unemployment. Price-increase Perceptions of price increases are particularly high regarding groceries (at 95 percent) and other household products. In these categories, more than half of respondents have reacted to inflation by trying less costly brands. Over the last six weeks, half have tried a private-label brand, 30 percent have switched brands, and a quarter have tried out a different retailer.

Italian consumers are increasingly pessimistic about the economy, with many aiming to reduce spending and modify consumption habits. Italian consumers are increasingly worried about the effects of rising prices, as well as the invasion of Ukraine. Of Italians surveyed, six in ten expressed a negative view of the current economy; hopes for an economic recovery are lower than they were throughout the entire COVID-19 pandemic. Consumers perceived the highest price increases in groceries and fuel, along with strong increase in spend. These sentiments have translated into reduced consumption. Changed consumer behavior is also apparent, with a shift towards discounters and private-label brands. Price, value for money and availability are the biggest drivers of these choices.
