Strategy & Organizational Transformation

The Strategy No One Wants to Hear

Strategy becomes meaningful when leaders are willing to make the choices others would rather avoid.

This Perspective examines why leaders continue adding priorities, how competing commitments strain organizational capacity, and what it takes to make the difficult choices that meaningful strategy requires.
