Terry Leahy joined Tesco in 1970s, that time Tesco was a struggling retail company in Britain, but gradually it grew during 1980s (Kelly, 2000). Previously Leahy was Marketing Director and then he became CEO. About Tesco’s story, he says - from last one decade, Tesco has outstanding transformations.

Tesco became “third largest retail” chain in international market and now present in 14 European countries. Tesco also has its operations and 6,000 stores. (Leahy 2012).

Tesco managers very well know that high motivation plays a vital role for continuous success (Ward, Bacon and Mackie 2006).

Currently Tesco is one of the most significant player in British market. It is a platform, which gives an opportunity to work for the people, came from different culture and geographic locations. Digital revolution made a strong impact on retail industry (Leahy 2012). It changed the customer’s expectation, which was a big challenge for all retailers.

Tesco noticed that there is a high risk in raising the price, which can increase problems in their business. By this, it was not so easy for the staff to stay encouraged and committed to the needs of all customers.

Tesco always gives opportunity to everyone to share his or her own view (Ceanwell-ward,

Bacon and Mackie, 2006). They make sure that applied changes are effective or not, their staff felt motivated or not, it was valuable for the customers or not. By focusing on the customers, Tesco made their job more fascinating. By the feedbacks, they came to know, that the adopted leadership style and orderly communication, is very important to sustain high level of motivation and output. Then, Situational leadership was introduced and helped manages to implement changes in their system. There are three-multi dimension on which Tesco works, they are – “Organizational dimension, Technological dimension and Management dimension” (Evans and Mason, 2015). Tesco always gives the value for creating motivational environment for the sustainable development and success. They adopted the directing style of leadership and said – “People want both direction and communication” (Ceanwell-ward, Bacon and Mackie 2006).

Impact Of Changes In Leadership

Tesco believes in the five leadership skills, which are - “Collaboration, Empathy, Motivation, Responsiveness, and Resilience.”

On September- 1st- 2014, Dave Lewis became Group Chief executive to the Board of Tesco. For three decades from 1987, he worked with Unilever, across Asia, America, and Europe. Because he is from FMCG background, he is serving his best skills to Tesco for “brand marketing, customer management and other general management functions (Insight Traction, 2018)”.

(Tesco PLC 2018).

Jason Tarry, Chief Commercial Officer of Tesco, also appraised George Wright. He said – “George is a recognized and valued coworker of product leadership team (Steven, 2018).”

Under the guidance of many skilled and talented leaders Tesco adopted many changes in their business segments and able to achieve high revenue by implementing prominent strategies.

As compared to the other retail players (Sainsbury, ASDA, Morrisons, Aldi, Lidl, and Waitrose) Tesco always gives more value from the best available resources. Speedily, Tesco hit the jackpot in retail market of UK, which affected many other retail companies. Simultaneously, other competitors also started implementing their belligerent tactics and policies to sustain in the competitive market.

Tesco’s core competencies helped company in serving what customer exactly wants and creating unique value with high revenues. As a customer retention scheme, Tesco started offering a unique “Clubcard” facility.

They adopted the idea of expansion, which brought many opportunities for them and helped them to raise. Tesco initiated an innovation, in which they started offering all their stores available for 24 hours and facility of online shopping. This helped in increasing the efficiency of the company. Money always gave the power to Tesco, for buying all the required and available resources. With the reserved revenue, Tesco is looking forward to open “Fresh and Easy” stores in USA.

“All of us focus on being on the top of our game is most significant thing. We need to keep it simple and customer-focused.” – By: Dave Lewis (Lawson 2015).

To analyze the competitive market of Tesco, Porter’s five forces analysis is used.

 

Source: (Tesco PLC 2018)

  • Bargaining Power of Buyer– The buyers always gets fascinated towards the “Lowest Price Scheme” offered by Tesco. It is so common that whenever a customer gets lower cost and heavy discount, they may switch easily. This happens many times because customers are – “Price Sensitive” by nature(Grundy 2017).
  • Bargaining Power of Supplier– All the suppliers strives towards the food and grocery retail vendors. They always have a fight and fear of losing their imperative business contracts with big supermarkets or retailers like Tesco. Therefore, there is a high rate of switching cost of suppliers and firms in this type of retail industry(Kung’u 2017).
  • Threats of New Entry – Along with ASDA, Sainsbury’s and some others Tesco has already captured a large size of retail market. Therefore, there are very less chance remains to enter in competitive market because it requires a heavy investment cost. Some of the big upcoming threats are – Amazon, eBay and Argos or other FDI policies.
  • Threats of Substitutes– In retail market there are many other primary substitutes, which can be – small enterprises, unorganized retailers, small chain of convenience stores, outlets that are nearby, organic shops etc. Still by implementing its strategic tools, Tesco is already there in local markets, small towns, and metro cities(Kung’u 2017).
  • Rivalry Among Existing Firms– There is a high level of intense competition among all the big retailers. Rivalry competitors were always been a big threat for Tesco. Some of them are – ASDA, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, and others.

Social – Due to some social factors, many changes occurred in purchasing pattern of the buyers. Like – aging population, increasing awareness for health related problems, more women employees at workplaces, outlook towards buying their food, etc. Therefore, Tesco is broadly increasing the trade of non – food items as well as organic products and positively reacted to these social/ cultural changes.
  • Technological– Technology has majorly influenced the development of the products of Tesco.  It is providing befits to both regular customers and company’s business. For better inventory management, goods distribution and other stocking activities Tesco widely adopted some technologies, which are – “Efficient Consumer Response (ECR), wireless devices, intelligent scale rating, electronic shelf labelling, self-check-out machines, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Electronic Point of Sale (EPoS), Electronic Funds Transfer Systems (EFTPoS) and electronic scanners”.
  • Economic– When there was a recession in UK, many companies faced high degradation in economy and unemployment rate. However, UK’s economy is now overcoming from the financial crisis, which is a very good sign for retail supermarkets like Tesco. International business is broadly developing which brings expectation of high profit returns in coming next few years.
  • Environmental– Global warming and emission of greenhouse gases are melting the Arctic ice and badly affecting the environmental sustainability. Tesco is planning initiatives on factors, which help to protect the environment. Like – Tesco started thinking and working in a socially accountable manner, very less obligations to company’s stakeholder and minimize the damage to environment.
  • Political– Government increased tax measure like VAT rate, which really affected some products retailed by the Tesco. Government also encourages big retail brands for giving more employment offers and finding out growth opportunities for highly skilled and talented aspirants.

Tesco is a platform where, there are both internal and external kind of stakeholders. Tesco always gives importance to people in a way, how they want to be treated. They are thankful to everyone who created and increased company’s value. Stakeholder always helped and encouraged the company to expand their business across the globe (Wolinski and Coates 2015).

Government also helps in promoting business of Tesco to “Europe, USA and Asia” (Carysforth and Neild 2002).
  • Employees– Tesco always shows its concern for employee’s security and gives rewards and promotion opportunity to each of them.

Tesco used “Club Card” as a promotional tool and implemented the “Lowest Price Policy.” It offered its own products too, which are - Tesco Lotus, Tesco Value etc. Apart from selling more than 40,000 products, Tesco also gives a facility of home delivery and free music downloads, which contributes in its mouth publicity (Bhasin 2018).

In terms of the financial performance of TESCO ltd, the company has maintained a fluctuating current ratio that ranges between 0.6 to 0.77. The financial leverage has made a steady improvement over the last few years with the maximum being 7.12 in the last year.This means that the company uses more debt to finance its projects , thereby reducing EPS.The cash conversion cycle has increased from 23 to 35 which is not  a good sign for the company.The inventory turnover has made a steady improvement from 19.5 to 23 which suugests that the company is efficiently turning inventory to sales.The payable period has increased almost twice in the last ten years which is not a good sign for the company , as it means that the company is getting money due from debtors at a later date.

There were many changes held during the guidance of some leaders, which help Tesco in some major achievements. In the body part we attempted to blow some light on the various roles of Tesco’s business functions, like – Marketing, Human Resource management, Finance and Operations. Apart from UK, they conducted some Community Champions in Czech Republic, Slovakia, Malaysia, Korea, and China. (Tesco plc. 2009). They entered into online market, which can be as a big business opportunity, but at the same, they needs to bear the overseas transportation and delivery cost too.
