Background Reading
REPORT & SUPPORTING TOOLS
Good Strategy
In this 10 minute read you'll read how, in business, at sea and just like in chess,
having no strategy means losing.
Bad strategy won’t help you either.
Instead, get clear on good strategy
Work out the biggest and most
important challenge your firm is facing.
Knowing the challenge helps inform your
choices, gives you real focus, and helps you
decide on the right coherent actions.
REPORT & SUPPORTING TOOLS
Quarterly OKRs in your firm
In this 10 minute read you'll hear about the value of a single quarterly priority focus in your firm, then you can share it across all your team and set up ways to track activities and results.
If you set out to change three things or more you’ll dilute the focus. Or you’ll need a bigger team. Instead, work out what to focus on, and what not to focus on, for this quarter.
BOOK
Good Strategy Bad Strategy
by Richard Rumelt
Rumelt very practically shows that a good strategy focuses on the challenges a business faces, and providing an insightful new approach for overcoming them. His sharp analysis and his brilliant, bold style make his book stand out from its competitors (something that Rumelt himself says is crucial).
