Strategy work is not trivial. How can we be sure that the strategy we choose is good enough? Did we succeed to make proper analysis and right conclusions to respond to all relevant threats or to take benefit of the best opportunities? There are several ways to bring about a successful strategy. The process may be formal or informal. It may involve a large group of people or develop in an individual’s head. Often strategy is deliberate, but sometimes it is just opportunistic or a result of evolution. How we end up forming the strategy depends on the company and its market context. Large companies and small companies often need to do things differently. Some companies are bold risk takers, others not so. Some companies are in a new or growing business, while others fight for market shares in a commoditized market.
