JC's Newsletter - Strategy in Chapters
Dear friends,Every week, I’m sharing an essay that relates to what we are building and learning at Alan. Those essays are fed by the article I’m lucky enough to read and capitalise on. I’m going to try to be provocative in those essays to trigger a discussion with the community. Please answer, comment, and ping me! If you are not subscribed yet, it's right here! If you like it, please share it on social networks! Strategy in ChaptersWe have an exciting roadmap for the next decade and beyond. There are so many things we can do in healthcare, things we want to do, and things we must do. Therefore, we need to prioritize, sequence, and decide what to do today and what to postpone. We will also make some early bets, as our history shows that these bets often grow and take time to develop. This is why we have designed a somewhat visual version of Alan's upcoming chapters. The way we envision it has been inspired by Shopify, Airbnb, Linear and others:
This also reassures us that when we say no to something, it doesn't mean no forever; it means no, we will do it in one of the upcoming chapters. The idea is that the next chapter is very strict—we have high visibility, we commit to what we will do, and we do it. Once we enter execution mode, it is no longer debatable, except in the case of significant new learnings. The following chapters have lower degrees of conviction; they are just a direction, a potential path. As we have seen many times in Alan's history, we learn, we iterate, and we build the future. The objective is to continue debating the sequence, the right things to do, while executing superbly on our shared vision. Some good articles I have read this weekBuilding companies & culture👉Making Meta | Andrew ‘Boz ’ Bosworth (CTO) (Lenny's Podcast)
