OMG, he verbalized what I often think when I try to read strategic documents.  I go "that's a word salad, there's nothing here, it's abstract fancy-sounding statement that makes the author look smart. But what does it mean?" Thanks Lenny for inviting Prof. Rumelt!

@ghanemzadeh

Great! Prof. Rumelt rocks. I've read the Good Strategy/Bad Strategy and it's one of the best Stratgey books.

@pbheda

Best explantion of what stragey is, it is an action plan to solve the hardest problem but its impacted  when interests are not aligned ,  if he writes a "don't do that" book , i think it will be a great book

I love listening Richard's podcasts'/speeches. He is somehow "magical". Simple, but listening to him I almost literally rewire my brain into the mind of a real strategist.

@bazejkazmierczak4660

It was my first encounter with Richard Rumelt interview. He's delivering great insights, sharing extensive knowledge, wisdom, experience. I was impressed how Richard is able to connect recent LLM revolution back to other revolutions of the past.
Lenny, I'm looking forward for similar caliber profiles on your channel. Well done!

@salim7701

An amazing time we live in, I can watch this for free from my place and with earphone so I can hear them clearly, colours are close to reality, with ability to stop and go back if I didn't understand something!

Truly blessed!

@aneez1981

One of the best episodes, largely because it is distilled down to what matters and how to think about a problem. Have taken down a lot of notes. Hope to continue this thought exercise at my workplace. Thanks for bringing Richard onto the pod.

@every1readthis

I've listened to this podcast several times. I continue to learn something new I missed.

@fabuhaimed

The interview with Richard Rumelt was truly insightful. Having read his books, "Good Strategy, Bad Strategy" and "The Crux," I'm inspired to conduct a webinar on strategy to explain that it goes beyond mere vision and mission statements. The term "Action Agenda" resonates with me as a fitting substitute for the conventional strategy plan. I appreciate the concise summaries presented in the Takeaways throughout the interview. Both the interviewee and interviewer were exceptional, and I look forward to similar engaging discussions in the future.

@mulderbm

So many gems from experience in here. Listen with intent and you may recognize them from your own practice. I also like the hint on history books that is key to understanding the context even in todays tech driven world.

@marcmenzel8

Richard, chapeau. It helps me to support others with finding in themselves their answers to build a strategy. All this in organizational business context. So, many thanks, great chat, cool stories and keep on igniting thinking! The world would become a better place to live. Cheers for now, Marc

@ryanabshire8061

This was an outstanding and insightful interview.  You did a good job of facilitating him through his most notable findings from his books and experience, and he did a great job of staying very consistent with his message.  This is quite a lot of food for thought; thank you for hosting this interview!

@DharminderSingh

Incredible podcast

@blackmansaduuri1122

This is worth watching a thousand times ❤❤

@pablolis

It was an excellent episode, Lenny and Richard Rumelt! Thank you so much. It's been a huge pleasure to watch it in its entirely.
Full of insights and clarification on strategy and other subjects. 
Be sure to check it out!

@larsrichter340

Thanks for that great interview! One of the most inspiring persons when it comes to strategy

@vale-y1i

Thanks for this. There's some really good ideas here. As a strategic approach/framework, Roger Martin's and AG Lafley's "Playing to win" is a much clearer way to create a winning strategy.

@Drackomass

This was a really slow burner episode, it's very different from Lenny's other episodes, this is probably my Lenny of the Year Episode (I know to early to tell).

@dainbolling9375

One of your best!

@Lossengwath

I cringe every time a leader talks about "strategy", and they just state a desired goal or objective with no plan to get there whatsoever.
