💡 Real Strategy Happens in the Field — Not Just the Boardroom
Strategy isn’t a document — it’s a daily decision-making tool.
Real strategy lives in the choices teams make every day — not just in slide decks.
What we prioritize, what we ignore, how we respond — that’s where the actual strategy plays out.
“Strategy fails when it’s distant. It thrives when it’s grounded in real context.”
Having worked as both:
- 📈 A sales leader in the field
- 📊 A strategist behind the numbers
I’ve seen what makes strategy real and relevant:
- ✅ Focus on what you can control
- ✅ Apply the 80/20 Rule — focus on what moves the needle
- ✅ Deaverage your thinking — not all markets, reps, or customers are the same
- ✅ Align your daily actions to strategic outcomes
- ✅ Share feedback upstream — strategy should learn from execution
- ✅ Know your numbers — how you make (or lose) money
- ✅ Know your market, your people, your competition — deeply
Real strategy doesn’t just stay in the boardroom. It breathes on the frontlines.
