Opportunistic Thinking vs Strategic Thinking How often do we make plans based on market opportunities or the resources we have available, instead of starting from our strategic goals? What risks does this approach have? How can we move from opportunistic to strategic thinking? We share some ideas to think about these questions in this article by Gastón Francese: https://lnkd.in/dUKpn5jZ #strategy #opportunity #decisionmaking #management #insights

What does it really mean to be strategic? It starts from a goal that guides decision-making and aligns all team initiatives and resources. It's the port we want to reach. On the contrary, basing our plans on seizing opportunities with the resources at hand implies letting the wind guide us to a port. @Gastón Francese explores this topic further in the below article:

𝗔 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. Pitfall #1. The reality of the world we're living in is that the external world is moving at a much faster pace than organisations can respond. Ensure you have the resources and capabilities to implement your plans effectively. 𝗙𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴-𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗺 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀. Pitfall #2. Businesses must think not only short term but also more future-oriented... What will my business or industry look like five years from now? Balance short-term objectives with long-term vision. 𝗧𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗶𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀. Pitfall #3. I talk a lot about strategy being about focus—the ability to distill and understand what we will focus on. Prioritise key areas where you can truly excel. 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀. Pitfall #4. You've got to start with the external environment. But what does the external environment look like? Stay informed about industry changes and adapt your strategy accordingly. Developing a robust strategy is crucial, but falling into common traps is easy. By addressing these pitfalls, you can create strategies that are both visionary and executable, setting your organisation on a path to sustainable growth. Focus on what truly matters, and stay adaptable.
