Resource allocation is a crucial aspect of any business strategy. It involves four fundamental activities from a financial point of view: Seeding, Nurturing, Pruning, and Harvesting. Seeding is entering new business areas whether through acquisition or an organic startup investment. Nurturing is building up existing businesses through investment. Pruning takes resources from existing businesses by giving some of their annual capital allocation to others or selling part of the business. Harvesting is selling or spinning off entire businesses that no longer fit a company's portfolio. While seeding may be the most exciting, harvesting is often the most difficult. Resource allocation is easier said than done, but it requires boldness to unlock resources. As businesses continue to navigate these challenging times, it's essential to prioritize resource allocation to ensure long-term success. #business #strategy #investment
