HOW TO RELEASE THE POWER OFSTRATEGIC THINKING
To become a better strategic thinker able to formulate and implement plans that will achieve the desired
objective, take the following guidelines to heart:
1. Break Down the Issue
The first step in strategic thinking is to break down an issue into smaller, more manageable parts so that
you can focus on them more effectively. How you do it is not as important as just doing it. You might break an
issue down by function. That’s what automotive innovator Henry Ford did when he created the assembly line,
and that’s why he said, “Nothing is particularly hard if you divide it into small jobs.”
How you break down an issue is up to you, whether it’s by function, timetable, responsibility, purpose, or
some other method. The point is that you need to break it down. Only one person in a million can juggle the
whole thing in his head and think strategically to create solid, viable plans.
