Strategy is a word that invokes many emotions.

There are those that fear it, those excited by it, and those apathetic to it.

To help me on my quest to develop millions of strategic people I am joined by Alex MH Smith, author of No Bullsh*t Strategy.

Alex talks with clarity on what strategy should mean to companies and how to approach it. He shares the ways in which people get strategy wrong, and the emotional weight the term has.

Alex believes humility is the key to strategic thinking and growth. He also gives insights into what your strategy should include and the significance of good faith disagreement in strategic discussions.

Alex’s brutally honest, refreshingly clear insights will change the way you think about strategy forever. 

“The higher your level of gaze, the more strategic you are” – Alex

You'll hear about:

• Why most businesses don’t actually have a strategy
• The two fundamental problems every company faces—and how to fix them
• Why extreme humility is the secret weapon of great strategists
• The biggest mistake leaders make when trying to "be strategic"
• How to communicate strategy so that everyone in your company actually gets it
