Strategic Thinking Council

Q: Why use Strategic Thinking Council on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Strategic Thinking Council is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

Q: How do I install Strategic Thinking Council in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/ace3000chao/book2startup/tree/master/ScalingUp-skills/strategic-thinking-council. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Q: Which AI models can use Strategic Thinking Council?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

Q: How many AI models can I use with Strategic Thinking Council?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Strategic Thinking Council with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Q: Is the Strategic Thinking Council AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by ace3000chao under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

Q: What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

Q: How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.

Installation

Install the Strategic Thinking Council AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/ace3000chao/book2startup/tree/master/ScalingUp-skills/strategic-thinking-council
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Strategic Thinking Council in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Strategic Thinking Council on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Strategic Thinking Council is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

战略思维团队（Strategic Thinking Council）

R — 原文 (Reading)

"It's helpful to think about strategic planning in terms of two separate teams: strategic thinking and execution planning. Jim Collins refers to the strategic thinking team as 'the council.'"

— Verne Harnish, Scaling Up, 第7章

战略思考和执行规划必须由两个不同的团队负责。Jim Collins称之为"议会"（The Council）的战略思维团队，由3-5人组成，每周固定时间开会，专门做战略思考——看远处、辨趋势、做选择。执行规划则交给更大的运营团队。这个分离确保战略不被日常紧急事务淹没。

I — 方法论骨架 (Interpretation)

战略思维团队的核心洞察：战略思考和执行规划是两种截然不同的心智模式，放在一起必然互相干扰。

战略思维需要"慢"：看3-5年，想大问题，不被短期波动带走
执行规划需要"快"：解决当下问题，把战略落地为具体行动
当两者混在一起时：战略会议永远被运营细节打断，执行团队永远得不到清晰的战略方向

战略思维团队（议会）的设计原则：

3-5人：太多人效率低，太少人视野窄
最高决策层：CEO + 核心高管，必须是有权做战略选择的人
每周固定时间：不是"需要时开"，是每周必开，形成节奏
只看远处：不讨论本周/本月的事，不处理运营问题
与运营会议完全分离：时间分开、议程分开、参与者分开

CEO拥有最终决策权，但"议会"的多双眼睛帮助导航，防止战略盲区。

A1 — 书中的应用 (Past Application)

案例1: 苹果的 executive team 战略分离

问题: 乔布斯回归后，苹果如何在濒临破产时重新找到战略方向？
方法论的使用: 乔布斯将高管团队分为"战略层"（他自己+核心副总裁，少数人做重大决策）和"执行层"（各部门总经理负责落地），战略层每周聚焦产品方向，执行层不参与战略辩论。
结论: 极简战略团队让苹果在90年代末快速聚焦到iPod+iTunes两条核心产品线。
结果: 苹果从1997年亏损10亿到2007年市值突破3000亿。

案例2: 约翰迪尔（John Deere）的"双轨战略会议"

问题: 约翰迪尔如何在150年历史的老牌企业中保持战略前瞻性？
方法论的使用: 约翰迪尔建立了两套并行的会议体系："战略议会"（CEO+3位高管，每季度两天，专注5年趋势）和"运营委员会"（全高管层，每月开会，看本月/本季数据）。
结论: 战略议会不受运营压力干扰，真正讨论农业自动化、精准农业等长期趋势。
结果: 约翰迪尔在农机行业整体下滑时，通过长期技术布局在精准农业领域建立先发优势。

案例3: 某连锁零售的"战略议会"建立过程

问题: 一家中型零售连锁创始人抱怨"每天被门店问题淹没，没有时间想未来"。
方法论的使用: 该创始人组建了由自己+CFO+COO+CHO组成的4人战略议会，每周三上午9-11点为固定战略时间，会议规则：本周运营问题不在此讨论，任何人提出运营问题立即叫停并移到下午的运营会议。
结论: 3个月后，创始人发现自己开始真正思考"线上线下融合"和"供应链优化"等战略议题。
结果: 6个月后制定了线上订货+门店自提战略，成为区域内首个实现全渠道的零售商。

A2 — 触发场景 (Future Trigger) ★

用户会在什么情境下需要这个 skill？

CEO和高管团队每天开会被运营问题淹没，战略讨论永远被"紧急"的事打断
企业从小团队向规模化过渡，创始人发现自己不再能一个人做所有战略决策
高管团队职责不清，战略和执行混在一起，互相推诿
年度战略规划流于形式，规划时热热闹闹，执行时发现方向已经变了
新的战略方向推进不下去，原因是执行团队太忙于日常事务

语言信号（用户的话里出现这些就应激活）

"战略会议永远在讨论运营的事"
"CEO决策过载，什么都要他拍板"
"高管团队缺乏战略思考"
"战略和执行怎么分开"
"每周例会到底该干嘛"
"大家都在低头干活，没人抬头看路"

与相邻 skill 的区分

与 OPSP（一页战略计划） 的区别：OPSP是战略规划的工具/输出物，战略思维团队是负责做战略的人的组合方式；先有议会，再有OPSP。
与 BHAG 的区别：BHAG是战略输出的内容（25年目标），战略思维团队是产生这些战略内容的组织形式；议会负责讨论BHAG是否仍然正确。
与 10大Rockefeller Habits 的区别：Rockefeller Habits强调高管团队健康度和沟通节奏，战略思维团队强调战略和执行的组织分离；前者是通用的团队健康习惯，后者是特定于战略决策的结构设计。

E — 可执行步骤（Execution）

当 skill 被激活后，agent 应按以下步骤执行：

确认战略思维团队的成员和节奏
- 完成标准：确定3-5人名单，明确每周/每两周的固定会议时间（至少90分钟），并将时间锁定在CEO和高管的日历中
- 判停条件：若CEO和高管无法承诺固定时间，先讨论"为什么战略时间不被尊重"，找到障碍
设计"战略会议"的专属议程规则
- 完成标准：制定明确规则——
  - 不讨论本周/本月运营数据（除非影响3年战略判断）
  - 只讨论"3年后我们会怎样"的问题
  - 每次会议聚焦1个战略主题（如：市场趋势、人才布局、技术方向）
  - 运营问题一律移到次日运营会议
- 判停条件：若团队<3人，改为"战略时段"（CEO+顾问的独立思考时间），不完全依赖会议
建立战略输出的闭环机制
- 完成标准：每次战略议会产出1个明确决定或问题（如：进入/退出某个市场、启动/停止某个项目），并在下次会议复盘上次决定的后续进展
- 判停条件：若战略议会连续3次没有产出任何战略决定，回到步骤1重新审视"这几个人是否真的在做战略思考"

B — 边界（Boundary）★

不要在以下情况使用此 skill

初创公司小于10人：此时创始人和核心团队每个人都必须同时做战略和执行，分离反而降低效率
危机/紧急状态：危机时需要扁平化决策，战略议会可能来不及召集
组织权力极度集中：CEO不愿意放权，任何战略讨论都会被事实上的单人选票推翻
没有稳定的高管团队：高管频繁更换，议会成员不稳定，战略思考无法积累

作者在书中警告的失败模式

战略议会变成了另一个运营会议：每次议题都滑落到执行细节，参与者失去信任
CEO垄断战略议会：名义上是议会，实际上是CEO宣读决定，与真正的集体思考无关
战略和执行分离后没有连接机制：战略议会做出的决定被执行团队束之高阁

作者的盲点 / 时代局限

对远程办公/分布式团队如何开好战略议会的具体方法着墨不足
"议会"与董事会的关系和边界未被充分讨论

容易混淆的邻近方法论

Board of Directors（董事会）：董事会是治理结构，战略议会是管理团队内部组织；董事会管"公司是否在正确的路上"，议会管"如何到那里"
Off-site Strategy Retreat（战略务虚）：务虚是年度深度的战略讨论，战略议会是每周例行的战略思考；前者是后者在深度上的补充，不是替代
OKR规划：OKR是战略落地的工具，战略议会是产生战略判断的场所；OKR在议会中讨论，但议会不做OKR的细节review
