Strategic

Leading the organization, not just the operation.

At this level the job stops being about solving problems and starts being about which problems the organization solves at all — and whether the culture underneath it can carry the strategy.

The final leadership tier: vision, change, innovation, influence across an organization you don't directly control, and the deliberate construction of culture. Ends with a strategic leadership plan you present, not just submit.
