Reminds me of the dialogue in the movie "Jeremiah Johnson" about getting vs skinning the bear. I find that the ensuring opportunities versus exploiting them sounds good, but actually there is no clean separation in day-to-day life. Do you? I also find that focusing people's conversation about being strategic by requiring it to be focused upon what creates/drives growth, also clears up some of the fuzziness. I wrote about that as it applies to using technology and ManagePro. Let me know if that fits with your thinking.
