HowDoYouDoIT?
Cheap, Fast, Best!
Thats what all leaders need to know. Every business is running on the concept of supply and demand. They don't need someone to tell how a business will run however what is the best it can get to run faster.
Vision is for leaders and only other leaders can understand it. No matter how vague\unrealistic or out of the box it seems initially, can be achieved once gets planted to appropriate architects.
So lets circle back to the subject. HowDoYouDoIT?
If you are a CEO- Is your execution depending on tools which are running by IT?
If you are a CFO- Is IT? the Cost vs Need equation is fitting well
Example- Say you are selling ice-cream. So you'll focus on finding the best flavor, ingredients to make a world class product which will be favorite to kids and older kids.

How do you do it?
So far there must have been two mind set. Am i(I) referring to IT or it?
As a leader you are free to consult, seek guidance, reject, repeat, resolve, react and recognize. There is nothing wrong with it.
To sell ice-cream, wouldn't it be amazing if you know how many kids like chocolate and how many parents also like chocolate. That way you'll keep fresh stock and fulfill all needs.
Power to connect with customer is important. Making it feel like you are concerned. That comes from workplace which is driven by security, reliability and agility.
This World growing at the pace of 1Billion per 10 years. It keeps getting faster and may reach 1Billion in 5 year shortly.
