Kaitlin Maud recently set up Current Forward, a strategy collective based in Austin, Texas. And as part of her preparation for our conversation (yes, sometimes people do homework... but I don't judge either way), Kaitlin asked the strategy community on Twitter about strategy taboos - what topics or points of view are just too raw for us to admit or examine?  

The taboos we discuss: 

- Strategy is a creative act

- Good at talking, not good at execution

- PowerPoint is a weak way to communicate ideas

- Brief templates are uninspiring to creative teams

- Briefings are too boring

- Not every strategist loves brainstorms
