"Like all good stories, this storyline includes key actors, their motivations, a set of actions and judgments that develop the narrative, and a conclusion with a lesson. Making this storyline explicit gives it even more power to guide the decision about what strategy to adopt."

A great story line also includes the idea that your characters will face obstacles and struggle. Which also makes a great point about how you build your strategy too!

Be sure to articulate the story about the future so as to guide your decision-making, especially when it comes to strategy. Sound strategy starts with having a clear storyline that articulates a leader’s personal vision for the future.

When a strategy lines up with that story, a great call can be made.
