Strategy Savvy : Balanced Strategy Development Approach Using Insights, Culture, Operations, and Digitization
With the COVID-19 pandemic, many business leaders question the need for strategy and the value of strategic planning and management in today’s environment.This book will demonstrate that our approach to strategy development and implementation needs to change to be able to help organizations change.The proposed new approach in this book can provide insights and perspectives to keep strategy relevant by "Putting Strategy in Action" through developing a "Making the Future Happen Today" way of thinking and living. Many strategy books focus on the perspective of large multinational corporations that have the capacity and capabilities to develop and implement a strategy using very structured methodologies and tools.This book will add a new dimension by focusing on the use of Strategy-as-Practice (SaP), intuition, and serendipity as important complements that can be used by large corporations as well as small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and entrepreneurs to develop and implement winning strategies.This is an important dimension to support the strategic decision-making process that is frequently undermined in traditional strategic planning and management-focused books. The author theorizes that developing into a Strategy Savvy professional is about embracing two of the most important concepts in strategy development—Proactivity and Sustainability.This book addresses the opportunities and threats presented by VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity) and how we can capitalize on those opportunities to create unprecedented growth opportunities in Society 5.0 that is shaping new economies, such as the Digital Economy, the Experience Economy, the Sharing Economy, the GIG Economy, the Purpose Economy and the Circular Economy.The author also proposes a new approach to strategy development and implementation that mixes formal planning with practice and intuition that is helped by serendipity.He presents a strategy that is driven by four propellers—insights, culture, operations, and digitization—to ensure arrival at a better future.

Which culture is the best culture in the world?
It is not appropriate to label any one culture as the "best" in the world as every culture has its own unique strengths and values. Each culture contributes to the diversity and richness of the world, and it is important to respect and appreciate the differences among them. Instead of comparing cultures, it is more valuable to learn from and celebrate the diversity of cultures around the world.

Why is Turkish culture often confused with Arab culture?
Turkish culture is often confused with Arab culture due to several factors. Firstly, both cultures are located in the Middle East and share some similarities in language, religion, and traditional customs. Additionally, there is a historical connection between the two regions through the Ottoman Empire, which had a significant influence on Arab countries. Furthermore, the media and popular culture often portray a homogenized view of the Middle East, leading to misconceptions and generalizations about the diverse cultures within the region. However, it is important to recognize and appreciate the distinct differences and unique aspects of Turkish and Arab cultures.

What is the difference between historical culture and memory culture?
Historical culture refers to the collective understanding and interpretation of historical events, traditions, and customs within a society. It encompasses the tangible and intangible aspects of a society's past, including artifacts, monuments, and rituals. Memory culture, on the other hand, focuses on the ways in which a society actively engages with and remembers its history. It involves the processes of commemoration, memorialization, and the transmission of historical knowledge through storytelling, education, and public discourse. While historical culture is the broader framework of a society's historical identity, memory culture is the active, dynamic practice of remembering and interpreting that history.

Does globalization destroy culture?
Globalization can have both positive and negative impacts on culture. On one hand, it can lead to the spread of ideas, values, and traditions across borders, promoting cultural exchange and understanding. However, it can also result in the homogenization of cultures, as Western ideals and consumerism become dominant, potentially eroding local traditions and identities. Ultimately, the impact of globalization on culture depends on how it is managed and whether efforts are made to preserve and celebrate diverse cultural expressions.
