A Pause ...

Ok, I've already done nine posts on this long journey into strategy and mapping (in total, it'll be somewhere towards 200 posts, the journey has already been mapped) and so there's an awful lot more to come.

Some of the posts I've gone back and improved the writing on, I'll publish all of this at a latter stage. However, for the time being, what goes up will stay there for the near future.

Anyway, any feedback on this so far is welcome. Is it useful? Is it making you think? Is it too damn confusing?

Oh, and apologies for the place holders to all those picking up from RSS ... dumb move on my part.

Kindest
