In 2023 and beyond, the capability of Strategic Thinking will be more important to business leaders than ever before. Everything in business has changed and without foundational strategic thinking skills, leaders, decision-makers, and decision implementors have no direction. Without strategic direction, business failure is almost guaranteed sooner rather than later.

It is my pleasure to share with our readers fresh content and ideas about the 6 levels of strategic thinking. We use this framework and approach in our core business acumen content that supports our business simulation-centric approach to learning and the insight shared here is the same that I discussed with senior leaders during a high-level program delivered for a global 1,000 company’s high potential leaders.
