Liddell Hart stressed movement, flexibility, surprise. He saw that in most military campaigns dislocation of the enemy's psychological and physical balance is prelude to victory. This dislocation results from a strategic indirect approach. Reflect for a moment on the results of direct confrontation (trench war in World War I) versus indirect dislocation (Blitzkreig in World II). Liddell Hart is also tonic for business and political planning: Just change the vocabulary and his concepts fit.

The Power of Perspective shows how great leaders escape that trap. By learning to step outside perception, name the paradox, and claim higher ground, they unlock clarity that turns into action - across products, services, culture, and communication. This book introduces a practical method for: Reframing stuck situations Turning belief into strategy Aligning ...

Boards don’t fail because they lack information. They fail because they lose energy - and with it, momentum. Most boards begin the year with urgency. Then the plot changes. By mid-year, meetings turn into “status updates.” Risk becomes something to be “noted.” Strategy becomes something to “revisit.” And by Q4, the board sprints—making late decisions under pressure, paying a premium in attention, trust, and options. That pattern has a shape: the Board Activity U-Curve. The Boardroom Story is a practical governance method for breaking that curve—without pretending you can ...
