Frequently Asked Questions
Feel free to send me a note if you have any questions.
Some are frequently asked, and those I can answer right now.
1. Is it not too complex?
That depends. I knew I could not be this bold without ample preparation. That is why I used no less than 200 pages to explain the underlying logic. However, you won’t need to understand that in order to apply the model.
2. Is it practical?
Yes. The presented memory aid and 49 questions are much more practical than existing strategy tools. Unlike the alternatives, they will also not leave you wondering ‘So what…?.
3. Can you teach me?
Yes. It is wise to be instructed on how to make the most of the Model for Strategic Wisdom. If I teach you, you will be able to apply it faster and with more effect.
4. How can I start?
Just contact me. There is a lot of training material available so we can start assessing your company and improve strategic thinking in no time.
