In the current environment strategic leaders need to consider several topics such as:

  1. What is happening for you in the field of strategy?
  2. How do you help the business meet their business objectives?
  3. What do you mean your agenda is always their agenda?
  4. What is your concern with the term digital transformation?
  5. How do you consider human elements?
  6. How do you consider the political elements?
  7. For fun, what is happening in the hydroponic space?
  8. Why is succession so important?
