Mais umas ideais interessantes sobre a superior importância da focalização nos negócios:

"In its simplest form, strategic thinking is about deciding on which opportunities to focus your time, people, and money, and which opportunities to starve.  One of history’s greatest strategic thinkers, Napoleon Bonaparte summed it up this way: “In order to concentrate superior strength in one place, economy of force must be exercised in other places.” If dead, despotic French emperors are not really your style, Michael Porter said it like this: “The essence of strategy is choosing what not to do.”
...
Strategic thinkers must decide where to focus, not merely what’s “important.” Strategic leaders must consciously table some “important” projects or ignore some “important” opportunities.
...
Napoleon once said, “Nothing is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide.” Perhaps that’s also why this precious ability to decide is the defining feature of those deemed worthy to hold the highest leadership positions."

Só a focalização permite a concentração de recursos no aprofundamento de uma proposta de valor que leve ao "sell it for more" ou ao "make it for less", sem focalização são precisos compromissos que reduzem a especialização numa vantagem competitiva, que reduzem o alinhamento do mosaico de actividades.
