Strategy is being where the future is

When playing soccer of hockey or tennis, the player has to swing to where the ball will go. Strategy benefits greatly from a future-back-to-present approach - envisionin the future and making it the propellor to success. Always think ahead as you strategize. Always dream big.

Strategy is not allowing copiers to become better than creators

Germany created the automobile. Detroit perfected the art of making it available to millions. And then the Japanese took everyone's pants off in the auto business. From push pins to widgets to airplanes, copy cats will alway be able to beat creators. Creators, however, must be strategic at all times to keep pushing the innovation envelope in all circumstances. Processes are necessary to ensure new products, new services, new initiatives are being brought to fore to supersede copiers continuously.

Strategy lies in executing details to perfection

Perfection. It lies as much in the way a strategy takes cognizance of everything in the environment to detail steps that, when executed lead to perfectly delivering on the strategy. In a fast changing world, such perfection is essential to stay ahead of the curve and if it is not done correctly, will result in confused leadership and an even more confused team.
