Generative strategy

Generative strategy is in some way like a strategy of strategies. It's concerned with success; not specific goals.

On a higher-order level, generative strategy is extremely flexible. On the individual strategies' level, it is equally rigurous as traditional strategy processes. Of its many advantages over traditional approaches, these three are perhaps the most salient:

  1. It raises the probability of success and profit
  2. It removes the bias of plans and teams.
  3. It demands fewer resources.

A bet with a 30% chance of success is a poor bet, but six bets at 30% yield nearly a 90% success rate — a different endeavour entirely. A bet which allows complete modifications of either its variables or, more radically yet, its very own premise, isn't even a bet; it is a winning strategy.
