Most business owners think strategy is the first move.But if you haven’t built the structure to support your strategy, you’re just making guesses with better formatting.In this episode of The Budding Entrepreneur Podcast, Randy Bridges reveals why systems thinking—not strategy—is the real starting point for visionary leaders. Drawing insights from Michael G. Walker’s book The Systems-Thinking Visionary, this episode breaks down how to use systems to clarify, align, and eventually reveal the right strategy—instead of forcing one from the top down.You’ll walk away with a new lens on planning, a real-world case study, and a four-part action plan to move from ideas to implementation—with clarity and confidence.🔗 Want clarity on your next strategic move?Schedule your Maximum Business Impact Strategy Session here:👉 https://randybridgesconsulting.com/mbi-calendarFor more resources, visit:🌐 https://randybridgesconsulting.com📌 Subscribe for more practical business coaching, systems, and growth strategies.Read this or other Transcripts at https://tbe-transcripts.blogspot.comFor more business growth strategies, visit the Randy Bridges Consulting website at https://randybridgesconsulting.com.If you’d like to schedule a conversation to explore how we can support your business journey, feel free to grab some time on my calendar: https://calendly.com/randybridgesconsulting/virtual-coffee?back=1Music CreditsTrack Tribe: “Here It Comes” – Watch on YouTubeSpence: “Elevators Need Rock Too” – Watch on YouTubeAll music is copyright-free.
