How I Use AI to Reveal Strategic Blind Spots (Fast)

📊 97% of CEOs say traditional strategic planning doesn’t work.Richard Rumelt, in The Crux, puts it clearly: these exercises drain energy without creating real clarity.

What sets the most strategic leaders apart?

👉 They think in models, not in meetings.

A few days ago, I was talking with a partner about how I help leadership teams clarify their goals — sometimes in just a few hours.

He said:
“You ask questions like you’re mentally running through a Business Model Canvas.”

He was right.

Without ever explicitly mentioning it, I was using the Canvas as a mental framework — a lens for surfacing the real challenges behind a project.

Examples?

→ The business direction of a large organization aiming to generate €10M in 3 years
→ A program owner going from 50 to 250 transactions/year
→ An innovation team looking to rethink its product roadmap

These sound like typical discussions.
But I approach them by quickly modeling the project’s economic logic — not by running workshops or collecting endless briefs.

Today, I go even faster — with AI.

In just a few hours, I can extract a strategic problem statement from:
• Public documents
• Internal budgets
• Annual reports

— without even meeting the team.

Why?
Because they don’t have my strategic innovation skills.
But when I guide AI through that lens, we reveal what others miss — fast.

The result?

✔️ Alignment without the noise
✔️ Faster decisions on what really matters
✔️ The ability to challenge assumptions — from day one

All that, by combining strategic intuition with a powerful analysis engine.

Leaders — want to know what your documents really say about your strategy?

⚠️ As Rumelt warns in The Crux:
“A strategy that avoids the hard truths is no strategy at all.”

Most organizations don’t fail because of poor execution —
they fail because they never confronted the real strategic problem.

Don’t let unclear strategy slow you down.
