Listen to the podcast (duration: 25:27) > We continue our discussion on the factors that most affect a strategy’s odds of success. In our two previous podcasts we discussed how social dynamics and biases can undermine strategy development and explained the Power Curve of economic profit, which shows how well—or how poorly—the strategies of the world’s largest companies are performing. We also heard about the most important strategic moves companies can make to rise up that Power Curve. Today we will share excerpts from a presentation senior partner Chris Bradley gave at our Global Business Leaders Forum in New York. Chris will take us through some of the practical changes companies can make to their strategic planning process to move their performance into high gear.
