Commitment - While technology is a natural accelerant helping to catalyze new opportunities and extend relationships, creating trust and influence will still take time. I would also suggest resisting the temptation to have all your communications be self-serving. Do this and you’ll be viewed as just another sales broadcast.

A recurring theme in those interviews was bemoaning major changes in R&D strategy that occurred as a consequence of new, often outside, leadership.

Due to this resistance, I believe that culture CAN trump strategy, to the extend that the strategy and execution thereof are unsuccessful.
