It's good advice but it doesn't address the core problem. The reason "all large companies are in love with finding the right strategy" is because large companies tend to spawn large org charts and the closer people are to the top of that chart the more their job boils down to "build strategy". So not being so f*cking strategic involves far fewer executives.

Meaning while the advice is good it doesn't address the actual problem which is getting those Senior VPs to either (a) eliminate their own jobs or (b) start churning out some code. Neither of which seems likely.
