This strategy-inspiring product contains a few hundreds of very stimulating and diverse questions geared towards strategic thinking and breakthrough performance. Questions were carefully chosen for maximum strategic coverage and creative impact, and for comprehensive coverage of relevant key business issues. Only the creme of the creme has been included.

Strategy is essentially about systemic thinking: Multiple perspectives, i.e. looking at things from different angles, are used in the questions for each business domain and element to broaden coverage and maximize strategic and creative thinking. Same applies to use of different approaches in integrated sets of strategic questions, e.g. SWOT, Balanced Scorecard, Blue Ocean, business plan, and many others.

Practicality: Besides its inspiring role, approach is also very practical, including logical sequences and tabulations of questions, but indeed including space for direct writing of keyword answers, in electronic form (on the laptop) or on the paper printed material. Hence a record can be kept of the answers for extra stimulation and benefit. All questions are numbered.

Main Purpose is to stimulate creative and strategic thinking in the direction of breakthrough change and quantum leaps, and to put the manager in the right mindset for strategic thinking. It is a refreshing and warming up exercise for the mind. It acts as a recap of all key questions that the user needs to ask.
