The Year of the Strategist

The Businessmen Have to Make Decisions from Many Options

A fight in the Boardroom.

"'Quid pro quo' is a no-no, Bradbury. Around here we say 'reciprocal altruism'."

"This is the most important election of our lifetime."

'Ah, Galagher, we made good use of your proposal.'

"...but the big question is, does the competition know that we don't know what we don't know?"

After a day long meeting, the decision, as usual, is made in the hallway.

"Peterson proposes we move out of the mountains."

'Our problem is how to lower quality while raising prices...'

"So let's roll up our sleeves and show that America still builds the world's greatest advertising."

Target your customer.

'What are we, wimps? Are we gonna let a bunch of rabbits push us all over the field? Come on, big guys.'

"Now I'll demonstrate how, with a minimum of capital investment, you can make a mountain out of a molehill!"

'We took the old plan, folded in half, and now it's the new plan.'

Maybe it's now time to review our customer care strategy!"

"It's not bulls**t if we call it strategy."

"I love fast break business success."

Business Target

Game changing

'We're well positioned, but we lack leadership.'

"When it comes to online marketing, I'm puzzled."

The wine-shop

'Good news from the field, sire! Attila did not like the referee's call, so he's folding up his tents, taking his ball and going home!'

'I have no one to blame but myself, for now.'

'You should agree with me, but not all the time, Try mixing it up a little,'

Challenge and solution

Think Tank.

Thinking both inside and outside the box.

'With 5% spent on talent, 5% on production, and 90% on marketing...I smell WINNER!'

'Alternatively you can just focus on the CUSTOMER!'

'Sir, the company's had another successful month treading water.'
