Strategy
Example: Napoleon’s Five “Policies”
1. The primary objective is the destruction of the
enemy’s armies or the main army.
2. All forces must concentrate on the task of
attaining the objective.
3. Operations must be designed to surprise and
confuse the enemy.
4. Every effort must be made to render the enemy
helpless through the severance of his lines of
supply, communications, and retreat.
5. The security of French forces must be guarded to
prevent surprise.

Data: One of Your Most Valuable Assets
Asset: a resource with economic value that
an individual, corporation or country owns or controls
with the expectation that it will provide future benefit.
Gartner: Information is an under-managed, under-utilized asset
because it's not a balance-sheet asset.
Not all data is equal. Prioritize based on:
Criticality and value to the business
Legal obligations
Risk to the company
