    I'm not kidding on the mocking. Strategy is a craft that takes dedication. It starts with understanding your landscape. Ask yourself the following ... (p.s. you won't learn from maps if you don't use then, you won't learn from past SWOTs / biz models / P&L ... period).

    As you loop around the cycle, you will get better in all these aspects using past maps to learn from (how you acted vs what happened). After a decade of practice, you can safely add "strategist" to your job description without me mocking you.

    As you continue to learn, you will discover context specific play (i.e. gameplay. There are 70+ of these). You can then use anticipation (where) + doctrine (yourself and competitors) + gameplay to scenario plan how to attack a space.

    You will over time discover patterns that you have choice over. Some are context specific (gameplay), some are universal (doctrine). Doctrine (there are 40+ of these) will help you reduce "self harm" in an organisation and structure yourself.

    X: What's the relationship between strategy and doctrine? Me: Very little other than your first strategy should be "stopping self harm" i.e. fixing doctrine. If you're in that boat, ignore any other discussion of strategy until you do. Some basics pointers ...

    If you want to go about fixing doctrine in an organisation, then I strongly suggested you do this in phases. My best guess at the order in which you should tackle them is ...

    X: Can you tell us what our profile looks like? Me: No. Just grab 10-15 people across the organisation (at different levels) and get them to colour the boxes in. Be warned, there'll be lots of arguments but that's not a bad thing.

    However, the problem is of course that most companies don't understand their landscape or have any effective means of sensing change. If you're in that boat then most competitors can safely ignore you and any plans that you come up with. It's all guesswork / meme copying etc.

    With most competitors, you can play any game you like against them. They won't generally see it coming nor have any idea how to react nor have the ability to adapt. There are only a handful of competitors you have to pay attention to. Most of the time, you can just ignore them.

    Asked about capability models and mapping. When I look at organisations, I tend to examine doctrine to give me an idea of how adaptable they are / how well they'll respond to any gameplay. It's a very crude method but useful.
