Radical Focus SECOND EDITION
Christina Wodtke
Bad strategy is long on goals and short on policy or action. It assumes that goals are all you need. It puts forward strategic objectives that are incoherent and, sometimes, totally impracticable. It uses high-sounding words and phrases to hide these failings.
Good Strategy/Bad Strategy
Richard Rumelt
When awareness is insufficient, the other pattern I’ve found highly effective in low-authority scenarios is an approach I wrote about in *An Elegant Puzzle*, and call [model, document, and share](mailto:reader-forwarded-email/7b9afd52aed71a40540a6266556e6a5d/(/model-document-share/)):
1. Model the approach you want others to adopt. Make it easy for them to observe how you’ve changed the way you’re doing things.
2. Document the approach, the thinking behind it, and how to adopt it.
3. Share the document around. If people see you succeeding with the approach, then they’re likely to copy it from you.
