Lesson 1
Strategy

The CEO spent his first months in the job talking to managers in the company and formulating his strategy document.

The day came for him to make his presentation to the directors. They were pleased to hear him say that in future the company would focus on long-term growth, and that he was setting new goals in all areas of the business.

"To sum up," he said, "this company’s strategy is 15% growth over the next ten years."

He sat down, looking pleased with himself, and asked for questions.

"Yes," said one of the directors, "you’ve just told us what the company’s goal should be, but what we asked you for was a strategy!"
