Business strategy consists of: (1) Setting and aligning to shared corporate goals. (2) Agreeing the best way to achieve them. (3) Doing that, that then checking and reflecting on the outcomes. (4) Repeating the process. #strategy #businessStrategy
Many strategy convos focus on: (1) find some customers (2) work out what they want (3) give it to them. That's great for startups & greenfields. Established organisations might do better with: (1) What are we uniquely well placed to do? (2) how can we put that into service?
Asking the right questions in the right order can lead you to a powerful strategy. The wrong questions or the wrong order won't. So the art is working out the right questions and order. And that always depends on the situation you find yourself in. #strategy #businessStrategy
When doing strategy if you try and get to the answer too quickly you shortcut the process. And while you may get an answer it is unlikely to stand up to scrutiny and the rigours of execution. It can be harder to walk answers back than to get them right in the first place.
Business strategy entails asking questions with multiple good answers, and then teasing out the tensions and trade-offs between the alternatives. #strategy #businessStrategy
Key takeaway: AI isn’t a tech cycle; it’s a collateralized compute land grab. The future runs on GPUs, debt, and whoever blinks last. (From AI Secrets Newsletter)
Keir Starmer just explained his latest policy as "because my father worked with his hands and he felt undervalued". This is anecdotal evidence - one of the weakest form of evidence. See buff.ly/btig4gf
'Shadow-AI' is mostly limited to personal productivity hacks. AI-transformation requires automation at scale, and the development of products, services & business models not previously possible. If your biggest concern is still shadow-AI, you're missing the bigger picture.
Microsoft offered me £50 free advertising credit. But the time it would take me to navigate their maze of sign in rituals is worth more to me that £50.
I am getting more and more cold approaches from people offer in to help move my business overseas. It’s not just the millionaires that are leaving. It’s ordinary hardworking entrepreneurs.
There are 3 levels of AI adoption: 1. Personal productivity (CoPilot, etc.) 2. Mass automation (using Zapier, N8N etc.) 3. Product/service/business model innovation (doing things previous not possible/viable) Real value comes from 3. Too many organisations are still stuck in 1.
Acronyms are a shortcut in speaking and writing. But they also shortcut our thinking. By saying and writing things in full, we slow down, think more deeply about what we actually mean, and are more likely to find opportunities for progress.
Cold pitches packed with acronyms and jargon I’m not familiar are probably the worst of all.
Strongly disagree. I have read.ai hooked up to StratNavApp.com and it’s a massive productivity booster!
Having some AI follow you into your zoom meetings or google meet for taking notes is the digital equivalent of showing up to a meeting with your fly down
