Yet our organizations tend to keep doing the same things the same way
![Page 8: Sharpening Organizational Strategy](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062308/55928a151a28abcb0d8b4639/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

The problem with most strategic plans is they contain so little real strategy
