This is a great article (_20 Essential Questions) about strategy, specifically, what directors are looking for and the questions they need to have answered by management teams. We recently used this article with a group of agricultural cooperative executives, who found it very valuable. I particular like the emphasis on the interrelatedness between management and the board with regard to strategy. While the focus of the article is on the responsibilities of the board to ask the right questions, there is great value for management teams when setting strategy to understanding boards are (or should) be asking and looking for from senior leaders.
Thanks Richard Leblanc for this great article.
