Any company that hopes to be successful in any industry must have a well-reasoned strategic plan. To capture your strategic plan in one simple document, as you prepare your round one decision, please complete and submit the attached statement of strategy. I will not comment on it before round 1 decisions are due because that would amount to coaching your team, which could give you an unfair advantage over other teams. However, we will refer to these documents in order to better understand and explain the results of each competition round of the simulation.
