The other followup this raises is the question of "success". What is success, who defines it, etc.? I think this explanation presupposes that there is a clear, well-understood, and shared definition of success, right?
I think the definition works, but I also think we lead ourselves astray by conflating business and military strategizing. The market is telling us something when we don’t have to pay bonuses to retain military strategists the way we pay bonuses to military aviators to help keep them in military cockpits.
Hi, "anticipate, design, and facilitate strategic decisions." But what makes a decision strategic? I think this needs to drill down a bit further. Strategic decisions are a result of required changes within the operational environment IOT achive organizational objectives.
