Strategy in an Ecosystem World
Are you a strategist, entrepreneur or business leader a little puzzled by the modern business environment?
Are you looking to create value in such a complex modern world of business?
Want to understand the rules of the game in the 2020’s ?
Or maybe you’re a business student/graduate looking to understand strategy and get into your first strategy role?
Then this is for you…
Between starting my own business, supporting growth at a global, fast-growth tech startup and now a corporate strategist at a $1B group of companies, I have seen the discipline of strategy be disrupted rapidly, in the same way AirBnB has made the word ‘hotel’ almost obsolete.
Why am I writing this? As a bit of a business nerd, my vision is to explore the forefront of business thinking to drive positive systemic outcomes.
I want to share with you the contemporary concepts, frameworks and models of strategy in an ecosystem-driven world.
The aim being so that you can design strategies that will have a positive, lasting impact on your organizations and communities.
But what is strategy? One of the godfathers of strategy, Roger Martin puts it so well, it is ‘playing to win’. So then the next question is, what is winning?
Winning is your vision, the ultimate aspiration or goal you’d like to achieve. It is defined by you and only you.
Strategy = how you get there….. simple.
