Something to do right from the start and at every step along the way is to study good strategists, including those in fiction. In fact, in my grad courses on strategy, 20% of the grade is based on a student's analysis of a strategy in fiction. I list the fiction books and films studied at the Army War College (yes, they do that) and add some of my favorites from contemporary cinema. Fiction - as thought experiments - offers strategists a safe way to learn. Lessons of failure and defeat occur without actual destruction and loss of life. Some of my favorites include: Saving Private Ryan, Ocean's 11, Moneyball, Inception, The Princess Bride and Home Alone. Yep, each one has some pretty elegant strategy for those who know how to see it.
