“Killing It” refers not only to destroying the competition, if at all possible, or coopetition if that is not quite feasible or desirable (more often than not, having a competitor is a very good thing for a vibrant ecosystem). Killing It also refers to killing those elements within your venture that should be killed off. There are many examples of these killing opportunities internally as well as externally, most prominently people and strategies and tactics that will simply not cut muster. It is very hard to cut anything in a venture, partly out of compassion perhaps, partly nostalgia, partly the cost of losing something that may have value but needs re-invention or re-definition. Usually it’s inertia and higher urgencies, but finishing off something that is a drag on acceleration potentials within a company is an important management priority.

Many high-energy entrepreneurs instinctively sense and follow these paths to sculpt their ventures to attain competitive superiority and superior results, but again instinct is not enough. This is a serious analytical process that involves a multitude of analytics of big and small data, and predictive modeling that rises well beyond typical financial modeling, however well done. Once this deep-thought process is instituted and monitored on an ongoing basis, the ability to persuade market agents, customers, investors, employees, and other influencers becomes a much more easily communicable task. Which, along with Word Power and Power Points, means memorable closure.
