Do We Really Know It All?
How often do we find ourselves stuck in familiar routines, building rollout plans for budgets or launches without questioning the broader picture? Too often, we fall into the trap of reusing past data or limiting ourselves to industry reports that reflect only part of the reality.
But here’s the real question: are we considering factors that may not seem immediately relevant but could reshape our strategies?
At EGN Peer Network, we empower leaders to think beyond their silos, unlocking insights that traditional planning overlooks.
Repeating the Past vs. Innovating the Future
Let’s be honest—how often does your plan start with last year’s numbers or standard market reports? While these resources are helpful, they can create a pigeonhole effect:
Last Year’s Data: Useful but static, leading to repetitive strategies.
Research Papers: Limited to what’s curated or subscribed to by your organization, leaving blind spots in emerging markets and trends.
What if the real disruptors aren’t on your radar because they’re “not relevant to us”—yet?
A Closer Look: US-China Tariffs
Take the ongoing US-China trade sanctions as an example. At first glance, this may seem like an isolated issue, impacting trade directly between these two nations. But dig deeper:
China’s Adaptability: Reduced demand from the US doesn’t halt production; instead, supply chains are redirected, often toward other Asian markets.
The Ripple Effect: For industries like retail, this creates heightened competition, while for supply chain operations, it introduces new opportunities.
By broadening our understanding, these “irrelevant” scenarios start to reveal both threats and opportunities for our businesses.
Knowledge Beyond the Silos
Here’s a truth we don’t talk about enough: nobody knows everything, but shared knowledge brings clarity. While no one likes a “know-it-all,” there’s undeniable value in learning from others who’ve navigated similar challenges.
This is exactly what EGN Peer Network is about—connecting you with a trusted circle of leaders across industries to exchange insights, identify blind spots, and co-create solutions.
At EGN, we believe collaboration turns complexity into clarity. By engaging with peers, you gain access to perspectives that challenge your assumptions and refine your approach, equipping you with the confidence to make better decisions.
