hi, I recently joined a strategy group and have only worked at IBM. I am curious how the strategy planning process works in other technology companies to compare to my own experience. wondering what is similar vs diff for this line of profession across the industry. can anyone share their company’s general process, timing, duration, who’s involved? thanks!
