Deck types / Strategy

Strategy

A strategy deck makes choices. Where to play, how to win, and, just as loudly, what you will stop doing.

The structure

  1. 1

    Where we are

    The honest baseline: market position, momentum, gaps.

  2. 2

    What changed

    The forces that make the current course insufficient.

  3. 3

    Where to play

    The markets and segments chosen, and the ones declined.

  4. 4

    How to win

    The advantage that carries the choice.

  5. 5

    What it takes

    Capabilities to build, buy, or borrow.

  6. 6

    The plan

    Initiatives with owners, sequenced.

  7. 7

    The scoreboard

    The few numbers that say it is working.
