151: Simplicity in Strategy (Rest and Reset series #3)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this week’s podcast episode, ‘Simplicity in Strategy’, I explain why a simple strategy is often better than a complex one and how this connects to the idea of strategy as a learning process, or agile strategy as it’s often called.
I encourage you to swim against the tide of complexity, embrace simplicity and agility in your strategy!
