Elevate - Three Disciplines of Strategic ThinkingAvirot Mitamura
Elevate - The Three Disciplines of Advanced Strategic Thinking.
Take-Aways
• Strategy is the astute allocation of resources – “time, talent and capital” – in planned
activities to serve customers better than your competitors do.
• Successful businesses are strategic. The right strategy is the best predictor of
profitability. Businesses fail because of bad strategy.
• Many firms treat strategy as perfunctory and occasional, instead of as crucial
and ongoing.
• Leaders often have no time to think, can’t prioritize and end up putting out fires instead
of strategizing long term. Stop and give strategy the time it warrants.
• Sound strategy calls for a big-picture, “elevated” understanding of your business.
• Strategic thinking has three elements: “acumen” for developing valuable insights,
“allocation” for using resources wisely, and “action” for executing strategic plans.
• “Differentiation,” not price-cutting, is the best route to business success.
• Strategy takes three disciplines: First, “coalesce” your best insights.
• Second, “compete” by making the right “trade-offs.” Third, “champion” your strategy.
• A great strategy may fail if your employees don’t understand or don’t rally behind it.
Your business is probably based on assumptions that are unstated and untested that are most likely inhibiting growth, profit and performance.
Recommended if you are a business startup or an established business that is under-performing.
