What is Market Culture?

MarketCulture Strategies

Market Culture is a relative term to describe:

  • The overarching culture of a business relating to the attention it focuses on markets/customers
  • The skills used to create value for customers
  • The level of belief that the ultimate purpose of the business is to create superior customer value, profitably

To break this down, a Market Culture can be distilled into the following 7 components:

External Company Factors:

  1. Customer Insight
  2. Customer Foresight
  3. Competitor Insight
  4. Competitor Foresight
  5. Peripheral Vision

Internal Company Factors:

  1. Cross-functional Collaboration
  2. Strategic Alignment

Research studies confirm that those organizations that exhibit a strong market culture produce superior business performance. What’s more, relative market culture strength can be measured, compared and improved.
