@amitfour Most authors from the last 20 years agree that strategy formulation too is a process, and that process itself can take many forms including the more and more popular "emergent strategy process" that sees strategy formulation and implementation as a one and continuous process. Any company's CEO who hires consultants for delivering a strategy should be fired straight away as that's his/her job. Consultants should bring new perspectives and options to be confronted with CEO's strategy.

One strategy is the right amount of enough. A company guided by two strategies, is a company who is confused about the next step, while two strategies might contradict.

Consultants do a great deal of lobbying in DC for many companies as well as play significant part in political campaigns, they usually make the biggest paychecks in the country, great industry to work at, but it requires a substantial amount of experience/knowledge.
