How can a manager tell a winning strategy from a strategy that is mediocre or a loser?

What will be an ideal response?


The mark of a winning strategy is strong company performance. Two kinds of performance indicators tell the most about the caliber of a company's strategy: (1) competitive strength and market standing and (2) profitability and financial strength.
