Strategy Paradox

Deloitte is a brand user. I was listening to their podcast on strategy paradox. The first time I heard about the word paradox was when I was watching the movie Inception, in June 2010. A flight of steps are built, and the engineers do not know where to get from there. Sometimes dreams are reality, or vice versa. Personal lives and commitments broke the train of thoughts for LEON. Then he hired a young girl, who could potentially focus on sleeping and dreaming. He was too consumed by his love life to even think of focusing on his dreams.

Anyways- Strategy Paradox happens when we invest too much time on success without committing on getting all the answers. That's incessant hunger, and poverty for getting things right. Business strategy is slightly different from corporate strategy. In the context of Deloitte, strategy paradox would depend on the type of management they deal with. The management, investors, and other stakeholders need to talk the same language. Best places to solve the paradox is reading the Annual Report of companies. Getting to know the earnings of LEON, would perhaps show the corporate strategy of Miley Cyrus.
