Why did I want to read it?
I picked up in the context of setting a good strategy while I was at Mercadona Tech building the data team.
What did I get out of it?
tl;dr
Highlights
The core of strategy work is always the same: discovering the critical factors in a situation and designing a way of coordinating and focusing actions to deal with those factors. (p. 2)
A good strategy recognizes the nature of the challenge and offers a way of surmounting it. Simply being ambitious is not a strategy. (p. 3)
A good strategy includes a set of coherent actions. They are not “implementation” details; they are the punch in the strategy. A strategy that fails to define a variety of plausible and feasible immediate actions is missing a critical component. (p. 6)
