Thank you Ned. Your comment is a good reminder that one shouldn’t feel so insulted when a higher ranking colleague tells you to forget the tactics and be more strategic during for example a meeting. Because as you said, what might be strategic to me would rightfully seem tactical from that person’s perspective.

Hey, on this left/right thing I can’t wait to see how many more clever analogies there are

Akin-
You bring out a really good perspective folks should keep in mind while talking about ‘strategy’ and ‘tactics’. What is ‘strategy’ for me, might be a ‘tactics’ for my CEO – so it really comes down to how we intend to address it and what we are planning to do with the output.

And to continue your’s and Stephane’s theme on left/right – the key is to look ahead (future) and do the right thing for the company and your customers than look behind and try to enshrine what is left of your historical success.

Loved your post! Funny, yet so true

And to stay in the theme of left/right: there’s always something left to do and we better do it right!

Merry Christmas & happy new year!
