So how do we fix this?We don’t. There is no solution for this, and there shouldn’t be one; it’s just the realities of setting out strategy. I think that you should be very aware that when you set out new strategies, you should always do it in the context of your previous strategy, but even that will not suddenly fix all of these issues.The other approach would be to make less big steering strategies, but then you will run into the probable risk of your competitors running circles around you. You might lose all momentum and become an oil tanker in a sea of speedboats.
