Strategy isn’t just about direction — it’s about connection. Yet too often, even the most
ambitious business strategies fall flat. Why?
Because strategy without insight is like navigating without a map.
At Akili, we’ve seen it time and again: organisations launching well-crafted strategies that
never gain traction because they were built on assumptions, not reality. It’s not the strategy
itself that fails — it’s the gap between planning and execution that breaks the system.
🚫 Common Pitfalls When Insight Is Missing:
- Misaligned capabilities: A vision set at the top doesn’t match the actual skill sets or
bandwidth within teams. - Market blind spots: Strategies based on outdated or shallow market data misread customer behaviour or competitive threats.
- Cultural disconnects: Change efforts falter when the organisation’s culture hasn’t been factored into the plan.
- Siloed decision-making: Without shared understanding, execution becomes fragmented across departments.
These breakdowns aren’t just costly — they’re demoralising. They slow momentum, weaken
leadership credibility, and erode trust across the business.
