The Aristo-Chic guide to being great at strategy

This always seems like it should be more complicated. IT. IS. NOT. The following is the super easy hack to make to come across as more strategic (!)

  • Know:              Follow the latest trends, know what is going on and what is being done.
  • Think:              Ask difficult questions, not annoying ones – be prepared to think what is the best for the organisation to advance to the next step, or provide a better service to its clients
  • Disrupt:           Be prepared to shake up the way it has always been done. If it works as is, then great, If it needs a refresh, then suggest it.
  • See:                 Be aware of the bigger picture for your situation and the organisation as a whole.
  • Speak:             Sound Strategic. Strategic thinkers also know how to speak the language. This a whole other training session. But as a basic tip, listen to the words/language your mentors or people in the firm you respect, are using and insert that into your language.
  • Act:                  Make time for thinking about the bigger picture
  • Be:                   Be Yourself. Your personality is what makes you stand out professionally, and not be another corporate robot.

Now go rock this ! Xx
