Research

•Most CSO’s consider themselves doers first, with the mandate, credentials and desire to act as well as advise. Most important, they understand how to focus the organization on execution today, not just on planning for tomorrow.

The Chief Strategy Officer – HBR Oct 2007

•Most of the chief strategy executives we spoke with ….Indeed, we found only one who was directly hired from a consultancy. Most entered their companies in planning, functional, or line-management capacities and were not tapped until years later for the top strategy post.

The Chief Strategy Officer – HBR Oct 2007

•A detailed plan may be comforting, but it’s not strategy. Comfort Trap 1: Strategic Planning; As much as boards and regulators may want the world to be knowable and controllable, that’s simply not how it works. Until, they accept this they will get planning instead of strategy – and lots of excuses down the line about why the revenue didn’t show up.
