Big picture, conceptual, strategic thinking is NOT knowing Porter’s 5 Forces. It’s not having an MBA, and it’s not being invited to a strategic meeting… Strategic thinking is thinking on a conceptual plane… Strategic thinkers can see things that aren’t there… yet. They can envision a different world from the one that exists, based on extrapolation as opposed to pure imagination.

If I differentiate strategic thinking from conceptual thinking, it’s to distinguish those who can merely think the big thoughts from those who can also see how to implement them.
