Importance of Framing the Problem Correctly – Is It Just Rebranding of Twitter or Business Transformation at X

Achieving results require more than good strategies; it also require good strategic business execution.  And good execution requires the proper framing for making the change. 

This reminds me of Lao Tzu’s famous saying by: “The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” Organizations like Twitter wants to get the first step right.

When I read about the recent announcement of Twitter’s rebranding to become “X” seems to me incorrectly framed, to me, the platform is wrong. Rebranding, while can be a significant understaking, does not encompasses all the challenges confronting Twitter.  Musk need a better framing of the problem, and to me, Twitter or now X, is facing a major transformation of the business of which rebranding is one just one project among a portfolio of endeavors.
