Part I: What business are you and your people really in
and why?
Strategies at Sea
“We plan ahead to win without fighting.” - Captain
Bob
Schlapp!
“Welcome aboard Devil’s Chariot", called Captain Bob.
"Consider yerselves to be the elected officers of this pirate ship.
"Ye need to develop yer strategies or game plan to follow
in fulfilling yer mission. Let’s see how we developed strategy
for new pirate crews.
"Our business is capturing, stealing, and sharing. We steal
from other ships or coastal towns and divide up the booty among
our crew members.
"Hear me, me hearties. To survive we have to act smarter
than everyone else. Note that I said 'act' smarter,
not 'be' smarter. We act smarter by planning ahead to
be able to do the unexpected. We plan ahead to give ourselves advantages
of wind, currents, darkness, or whatever it takes. We create situations
that help us to be victorious."
