Great Thread. At @pandionpro we utilize this mechanism for nearly all internal and our board meetings. Format works especially well to drive the right discussion and clarify thinking. It also helps if the company is killing it on the top AND bottom line! 😉

Next to the National Parks, USPS is 1 of America's best inventions
@LogTechEric@NYCounihan Yes. It is. Disappointing customers will always prove to be a worse long term strategy than innovating on their behalf. AMZN’s $1.5T market cap is Exhibit A
