1. Our road map in the Leader’s Handbook begins and ends with the six practices of leadership. Even though these steps are interdependent and are not sequential, developing a vision and strategy is an incredibly difficult task. In many ways, if you think of this from a competitive standpoint, you are creating a future, rather than following one. That takes a substantial amount of risk! For this week, critically analyze your company’s vision and strategy. Look at both the content and activities and then use the ‘five tests for your strategy’ and offer your opinion on creating a sustainable competitive advantage.

2. Life as we know it is busy and there is no shortage of items and activities that draw our attention and use up our time. As Master’s students, there is no shortage of things to do!
