"Strategic work is hard. The labor of constraint identification, judgment, and idiosyncratic language construction is demanding. It seems so much easier to take terms for granted and fall back on the familiar, as most financial commentators and strategy authors do. But the price of this ease is that the logical and mechanical aspects of the firm come to the fore and the value-adding aspects get pushed into the background. The nature of the entrepreneurial judgment - and why the firm exists - gets ignored. Yet the point of strategizing is to create a value-adding BM, not a logical model.

[Moi ici: A "verdade", nisto da estratégia é muito elástica!!! O que é verdade, não o é por causa de relações lógicas mas por causa da política, por causa do ADN, por causa da nossa identidade] So the one judged true is not so because of logic but because of our politics - a different kind of truth, socially embedded or constructed. Natural language truths arise from our habitus, the circumstances of our lives, not from logic.

Debate is fine but practice is what matters. The particularization or localization discussion above gets closer to practice than a purely theoretical discussion allows. Practice is often presumed to be the implementation of theory. But theories are always constructed with simplifications, excluding some features while attending to others. Thus no theory can embrace all the issues a practice engages. Several complementing theories or constraints are always necessary to grasp practice’s in-the-world nature. No practice can be adequately evaluated in a single dimension. Put differently, real practice must be evaluated in the world of experience that is never of a single dimension or embraced in the abstract world invoked by a theory. Judgment is always necessary to reasoned practice, a view theorizing tries to deny."
