Many other business leaders feel the same way. Often, this is because they associate strategy with analysis and execution with getting things done, and they attribute more value to doing than to analyzing. From that perspective, a strategy is a lofty, self-evident statement such as \u201cOur strategy is to maximize customer value\u201d or \u201cOur strategy is to become the market leader.\u201d Such \u201cstrategies\u201d don\u2019t contribute much to producing results. Possibly, they motivate the troops, although even that is highly debatable.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2013 Booz &amp; Company Inc.
