- Several people saw The fastest course is not the fastest and responded âTactics and Strategiesâ.
As I read this explanation, I noticed that I tend to explain abstract concept in abstract concepts, and I seem to be bad at explaining it by dropping abstraction. I guess I canât stand the fact that the more I try to explain things concretely, the more I lose precision at the same time (but there are many situations where itâs okay to be a little wrong, if the goal is for the other person to understand). https://twitter.com/_yasaichi/status/1128313752871247872
- He seems to see it as âreducing abstraction and likening it to something concrete.â
- It appears to me that the opposing concepts of âtactics and strategyâ came first, and then they chewed it up from there.
- But what I actually did was the opposite.
- interesting
- I felt the two specific stories were related, so I discarded the muddy parts and explained them.
- A story about a 360-degree evaluation that doesnât work very well and is being used by a large company.
- A story about a man who thought he was on the fastest track to success at another large company.
- So it was a process of raising the level of abstraction.
More specifics.
- Timeline 1: A person who left one of the largest companies, X, claims that he was on the fastest track to success.
- Timeline 2: My friend who recently received an unprecedented promotion responds, âNo, no, youâre running on existing rails and you say youâre the fastest, but to someone who doesnât run on rails, itâs like weâre all on different sides of the same coin.
- Timeline 3: After some time has passed, I read an anonymous testimonial about a 360-degree evaluation being done at a large company, Y, that was not very good.
- Timeline 4: I think that superiority in that evaluation method is just a matter of who is ahead on the rails in big company Y, and most people in the world arenât on those rails.
- Time Series 5: Recalling the events of Time Series 2
- I think âtactics ââstrategyâ is too abstract.
- just a bit of opposing concepts.
- The important keyword âconstraintsâ has disappeared and is missing.
- [policy constraint
- The important keyword âconstraintsâ has disappeared and is missing.
