Big picture vs Tactical Entrepreneurs

Recently came across a couple of entrepreneurs who have built significant businesses on back of very tactical opportunities — great ability to spot that niche and move aggressively to service it. Now these entrepreneurs want to go to the next level — in a bid to do so, they need to transform themselves from tactical entrepreneurs to the big picture entrepeneurs (overall space, “strategy”, big fund raising, etc.)

May be a better thing for them to do is to hire “big picture” people, and leverage their own strength of being able to spot more niches. Being comfortable with oneself and playing to one’s strengths (rather than focussing on addressing weaknesses alone) is a key to success and to enjoying one’s worklife!
