The Operating System（三） —— 读Scal

为了支撑战略与长期规划，作者提到了另外一个概念：

其实是想将第二、第三增长曲线了：

McKinsey has a famous framework of three growth horizons:

  Horizon 1: Current source of growth

  Horizon 2: Next source of growth (one that’s still nascent but looks promising)

  Horizon 3: Investment in a yet-to-be-determined third source of growth

In tech, you often need to start working on Horizons 2 and 3 very early on.

某种意义上来说，也可以说是“卷”的厉害，要不断向前看多几步棋。

为了支撑战略与长期规划，需要：

A financial model of the next three or so years, plus a list of what needs to be true to achieve those numbers.

A shorter-term plan that answers the questions “What are we trying to get done in the next 6 months, and in the next 12?” and “What does the P & L look like by December of this year?”

对应于预算中的LRP，以及Budget Planning + Rolling Forecast，只是滚动预算的周期可以更短。
