  • Stop Competing, Start Strategising: Unlocking Explosive Business Growth
    Jun 9 2025

    Welcome to all you Leaders In Strategy! Stop trying to be the "Best" & start being the "Only".

    In this insightful podcast episode , I am joined by strategy consultant Alex Smith, author of "No Bullshit Strategy" and we challenge conventional wisdom and offer a practical, accessible approach to strategic thinking that will transform the way you view your business.

    • Redefining Business Strategy: Learn Alex's concise and actionable definition of business strategy, moving beyond vague theoretical concepts to a practical framework for growth.

    • The "Pig and Lipstick" Analogy: Discover why focusing on product improvement ("the pig") is far more effective than solely relying on marketing ("lipstick") for long-term success.

    • The "Opposites Test" for Strategic Thinking: Learn Alex's unique "opposites test" to determine if your idea is a genuine strategy or just a mimicry of competitors.

    • "Refusing to Compete": Explore the counterintuitive concept of achieving competitive advantage by not directly competing, focusing instead on differentiation and symbiotic market share.
