Execution is where it's at
And I have to admit I was hoping for more detail on that most important of matters when I started in on this CIO magazine article on the pitfalls of making strategy stick. But it's worth a quick read anyway; I have always been fascinated with the subtle area of surface tension between having a good strategy and having a working strategy. I have encountered a lot of people in my work who have great strategic minds, with a good grasp of concepts and ideas, and a lot of people are are hard workers, great at getting things done, but few who have both qualities combined.

The article addresses, albeit incompletely, how to match those tendencies, and suggests that just as discretion may be the better part of valor, so to may execution be the better part of strategy.
