What strategy is not…• More, better, faster is not a strategy.• Effectiveness and efficiency are
necessary… but not sufficient.• Superb execution of fundamental
business processes… is expected.• Being extremely good at what you are
supposed to be good at… gets you no extra credit at all.

From the CEO of a little 172 billion dollar company…
Look, what is strategy but resource allocation?
When you strip away all the noise, that’s what it
comes down to. Strategy means making clear-cut
choices about how to compete. You cannot be
everything to everybody, no matter what the size
your business or how deep its pockets. You have
to figure out what to say “NO” to.Jeffrey Immelt
