About strategy, leadership, innovation and creativity

Aight, this is a post of mine on my strategy group on facebook.
You have the right to disagree... or not...

Let 'what' be a new or improved idea.
Let 'how' be a new or improved production method.

creativity = what + how
innovation = what * how (i.e. the product of...)

Good strategy lives in the realm of creativity.
Tactics are a series of specific techniques meant to implement the strategy (get the stupid things done).

We call half-ass strategy one that even if implemented correctly does not produce the expected result.

We call half-ass management one that implements incorrectly the predefined strategy.

Strategy needs not to be new or improved in order to succeed.

Nonetheless, a strategist holds the key to produce crazy productive and amazing results.

Now, may I ask, how many times a strategist implements the same old and safe patterns and then complains that the results are mediocre and his life is boring?

A good strategist is somewhat a risk taker, which is a personality trait...

So the moral of the story: good strategists and leaders are not made, they are born.
