Faster, Better, Stronger is not a Strategy
Summary
The article argues that 'faster, better, stronger' is not a strategy. It defines strategy using Rumelt's components (diagnosis, guiding policy, coherent actions) and applies it to platform engineering, framing strategy as a future-oriented bet and emphasizing prioritization over chasing every improvement. It provides practical guidance for platform and engineering leaders on what to invest in and what to deprioritize.
