It’s the limitation of the untrained mind to think that a strategy to make success at work will work at home too or vice versa.
As a strategic level consultant, I realize such a proposition is very naive because even strategies differ in one work place to another and in one home to another.
Many factors come into play in designing a strategy.
One thing remains same though. It’s the framework of strategy.let me summarize it this way:
1. There must be a clearly defined goal: at work it could be profit, at home it could be happiness.
2. The enemy must be defined: at work it could be the competition or at any time it could be low moral. At home it could be the neighbors or it could be the inevitable degradation of the quality of relationships spanning time and circumstances.
3. The resources available to the enemy must be identified, recognized and their application out guessed: at work it could be price, years in business, network. At home it could be police, community, words, actions.
4. your own resources must be inventoried and must be acquired: at work it could be capital or talent. At home it could be silence or mediators.
5.then strategy develop an interplay of the above three elements.
