The last section on strategic thinking is four ways to improve your strategic thinking skills, which four would probably not be a surprise after what we've seen already. But this is something I found in a very good article in Harvard Business Review about four ways to improve your strategic thinking. So I think it's good to have some other references. What you propose is these are a very simple to use, approach four steps, the first step is about knowing, again, back to the observation, the open mind will seek some trends and look for some changes in the market that are happening. Like if you're working in banking, for sure you you're worried about what's going on with Amazon and Google when they start getting into that business. So look around and see the trends try to observe the trends.

So that's about knowing, then think think, in thinking leads you to asking questions. What if Amazon suddenly starts acting like a bank? Or like Visa, MasterCard? What what will happen? How is going to be disrupting the industry and then your job? So I think by asking questions or open questions, what would happen if, what if, what if, and that will lead you to have a broader space of ideas that would broaden your thinking to third speak is about sound strategic, think about in sound strategic about the options, talk about the options, but looking at the trends, connecting the trends with the decisions and the consequences that you found out through the thinking.

And the last step is about acting is about making decisions, and then taking actions towards those decisions. We're going to move into decision making the next section so we're going to cover that as we finish With the chapters so we're going to move next into decision making, but just as a summary for improving your strategic thinking case, these are the four steps know, think, speak and act.
