Traditional planning assumes a static environment, but today's reality involves constantly changing variables - from personnel turnover to shifting market conditions.

The New Approach: Momentum-Based Strategy

• Focus on quick, successive actions rather than perfect planning
• Achieve ~7 pieces of momentum in sequence
• Broader solutions become clearer through action

Required Skills:
🔄 Rapid sense-making
🚀 Quick launches
🔁 Intense iteration

Leadership Mindset: 'Strong Opinions, Held Loosely'

• Form quick judgments based on experience
• Stay open to new information
• Balance observation with quick action

Real Example: The Navy SEALs' Bin Laden raid - despite months of planning, an unforeseen fence detail crashed their helicopter, yet they succeeded through rapid adaptation.

Key Success Factor: Reading genuine momentum vs. false signals and pivoting when efforts don't stick.
