Better, Simpler Strategy

A Value-Based Guide to Exceptional Performance


Do Less, Achieve More

by Allan Schweyer

Harvard business professor Felix Oberholzer-Gee offers a timeless reminder of age-old business wisdom told through the stories of those who listened – and those who didn’t.

Gleaned from his popular strategy course – and widely considered one of the most important works of strategy in 2021  Harvard business professor Felix Oberholzer-Gee offers a must-read for making better strategic decisions. 

His key insight rests in emphasizing strategic simplicity. Most firms muddle along. Great firms differentiate by maximizing customers’ willingness-to-pay (WTP) for products and services, while minimizing the price at which suppliers and employees will be willing to sell their services (WTS). In between lies value, including margin and profits. No strategy, says Oberholzer-Gee, should permit efforts that don’t increase WTP or decrease WTS.
