Way way off topic. I am having a discussion with someone about strategic versus tactical thinking. the context is where in that dichotomy CIO's / CTO's should be. Someone used the analogy of various military generals.
In any case, my contention is that Grant was neither. He merely threw resources ( soldiers ) at the problem, and eventually won because he had more resources to throw. Lee was at best a tactical thinker who in the end lost in part because he could not accept that his lieutenant James Longstreet was a superior strategic thinker and so ignored his good advice. Contact me off line. It's bad enough that I even post the question here. thanks. apologies to everyone else.
