The Taboos Of Strategy Work - Kaitlin Maud, Strategy Boss

Kaitlin Maud recently set up Current Forward, a strategy collective based in Austin, Texas. And as part of her preparation for our conversation (yes, sometimes people do homework... but I don't judge either way), Kaitlin asked the strategy community on Twitter about strategy taboos - what topics or points of view are just too raw for us to admit or examine?   The taboos we discuss:  - Strategy is a creative act - Good at talking, not good at execution - PowerPoint is a weak way to communicate ideas - Brief templates are uninspiring to creative teams - Briefings are too boring - Not every strategist loves brainstorms You can find Kaitlin here: https://twitter.com/kaitlinmaud   For more strategy talk: 1.
