I am a strategist, with a marketing background, so sometimes the expectation is that there will be a lot of talk.
Often, and too often with many of those I see, that is the case. Talk, talk, talk, and talk.
However, a strategy discussion without concrete action plans, and performance measures against those plans is not strategy, it is wishful thinking, perhaps delusion.
If you want just to feel good for a while, keep talking, but if you want to really achieve something, the hard work of implementation needs to be undertaken, so get out there!
