“Will Rogers” once said, If advertisers spent the same amount of money on improving their products as they do on advertising then they wouldn’t have to advertise them
Strategy management is still a young discipline with only approximately 50 years of development history. When observing the number of sciences dealing with it today, and the number of related publications, it is a success story. While businesses today are more concerned with the subject of strategy than were 50 years ago, the question that presents itself now is: How far the scientific findings and old methods can meet with the digital age? and do we need a new method and strategic planning model to work with, in this digital age?

Pruning will lead trees to grow faster and produce better fruit. The same happens when renewing your strategy, it clears your mind and redirects energy toward real priorities.
