#18: Strategy Playbooks - with Alessandro Pintaudi, VP of Product at Amenitiz

The key drivers of your strategy can be radically different in nature: are we optimizing on a well known topic? Are we doing a new big bet into uncharted territory?

Unfortunately, many times we are not conscious of the type of decision we are making, and how this affects the strategy “health”, risk, time horizons, and execution process.

Luckily, Alessandro doesn’t fall into that trap. He has a well established Playbook, that he uses with the team to balance the strategy and communicate the proper level of uncertainties and how they plan to reduce it.

On top of that, he has a very structured approach to uncover opportunities using a combination of Jobs To Be Done and Opportunity trees that we explored at length.

In this marvelous episode, we talked about:

• The inputs to start thinking about your strategy
• How to map the opportunity space from a JTBD perspective
• How to make the entire company contribute to the opportunities and better influence the roadmap
• How he uses the strategy playbook at Amenitiz.

And much more!
