Strategy Buzz: Some Great Thoughts

March 5, 2010

Here are some great thoughts from this last week on Twitter.  Look at them next time you’re stuck in a hard place in your strategic business plan.  They can shed a new light on a tough subject.  If you have any other inspiring quotes, we would love to hear them.

• Strategic planning & mindset revitalization is chicken soup for the entrepreneurial soul.  It fills you up when you’re feeling empty.
• Strategic planning doesn’t deal with future decisions.  It deals with the futurity of present decisions.
• Your clients are your best teachers.  Their input must be an integral part of you strategic planning.
• Strategic planning is often approached like an egg & spoon race.  Competitors line up, race from part A to B, drop the egg (ball), and pandemonium ensues.
• Strategic planning is worthless, unless you have a strategic vision.
