Pre-game Pre-read
Most large organizations are built to maintain, not innovate. They cling to outdated processes, resist change, and hope for the best. But hope isn’t a strategy.
If your company isn’t actively disrupting itself, you’re on borrowed time. Competitors will eat your lunch if you don’t act.
