Findings
This paper takes a fresh look at organizational strategy by considering a set of principles which, when applied in combination, will set companies apart from those who opt for earlier strategy approaches.

No project should outstay its welcome if it doesn’t work.
Practical implications
The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations.
