Commentary on the Strategy whisperers and nudgers video: Evolving the corporation from within

CSOsandox podcast hosts, Paul Hunter and Stuart Orr explore concepts introduced in the video on the CSOsandbox YouTube channel: "Enter the Strategy Whisperers: Evolving the future corporation from within". The thrust of the conversation is generated from the idea that high potential executives (high pots), those most likely to be nominated for fast track management development programs, could be assigned strategically important roles in the business. This will give them the benefit of experiencing the complexity of running a corporation first hand. In turn, whisperers are in a position to give back to the organisation. This is done by sharing the knowledge and skills they have acquired with others in the organisation. A White paper styled blog that describes how the role should work, along with other mechanisms - such as a Community of Strategy Practice (COSP) and the practice of Open Strategy - can be found on the CSOsandbox website (www,csosandbox/blog.com).  From the CSOsandbox Podcast Channel, The CFO Strategy Brief delivers focused, strategy‑led conversations for CFOs, CEOs and senior executives working at the intersection of finance, business strategy and organisational design. Each episode examines how modern CFOs connect capital allocation, digital transformation and risk intelligence to long‑term corporate purpose and enterprise‑wide outcomes.image.jpgWe explore how to design and govern strategy systems that turn complex realities into clear, forward‑looking choices – from funding growth and reshaping operating models to leading transformation in volatile conditions. The podcast sits within a broader strategic intelligence ecosystem that links executive education, research and analytics for CFOs and corporate leaders.Insights are powered by the Stratāgaia Power BI app and informed by the books Corporate Strategy (Remastered) I & II and Corporation of the Future (Routledge).
