You don’t always need to consult the oracle to work out what to do. No need to find the perfect book or await the alignment of the stars and the planets.

Just sit down with some colleagues and a white board and game it out.

Ask, if we had to work out it right now, how would we work it out right now and how would we know when we’d worked it out.

Chances are, between you, you pretty much have the answer in touching distance.

Chances are, between you, you can conjure up enough experience and pattern matching to draw a dartboard and get pretty close to the bull’s eye, particularly in you give yourself a few throws.

Then, as you step forward, keep your eyes wide open and be prepared to flex the plan when you meet reality.

Skippy strategy: Chances are, you have a pretty good answer already.
