The article focuses on how to determine whether a strategic plan is appropriately ambitious to drive meaningful growth while remaining realistic to execute. It presents eight key questions addressing problem definition, solution diversity, funding, staffing, uncertainty, time horizon, progress measurement, and competitive context to help leaders calibrate their strategy’s boldness. Experts Sheena Iyengar of Columbia Business School and Donald Sull of MIT Sloan School of Management emphasize balancing stretch goals with organizational capacity, encouraging experimentation, longer time frames, and awareness of competitors’ moves. The article advises aligning ambition with opportunity by clearly defining problems, involving top talent, and maintaining flexibility to adjust plans as conditions evolve.
