For the United States, the Vietnam War represented one of the epic failures in military planning and political influence. In that war, over $150 billion was used with little to show for it apart from casualties and injuries (McMahon, 2008). At a personal level, the war between Vietnam and the United States is a constant reminder of the importance of making strategic decisions when engaging in ventures or assignments. Providing a wholesome and elaborate analysis into the best skills in the field of strategic thinking will assist in understanding the best way to make such decisions at a personal level and at the state level.

Personally, I think that I am a strategic thinker as opposed to being a tactician. This is because in school matters, I prefer to set goals concerning my examinations, class work, and even co-curriculum activities. Furthermore, I am inclined to find out all the ways of achieving these targets. Therefore, I end up mobilizing my personal resources such as time and money to ensure that these targets are accomplished. I also engage in extensive strategic planning and thinking that helps me in preparing for future events. The work I do also involves making rapid, difficult decisions and I find that adopting a strategic approach helps in such situations (Imlay, & Toft, 2007).

Within the work environment, I have come to realize that cooperation with other people is highly beneficial. I know that I need constant evaluation from my colleagues and supervisors. Positive criticism is useful in improving my work skills and allowing me to progress up the ranks. I also find that I need the support and cooperation of my peers and subordinates. Rom the course, I have learnt that it required discipline, dedication, and strictness to ensure that goals are achieved (Walton, 2010). Two, I have learnt that selecting the most skilled individuals for a certain task results in higher levels of success. Lastly, I also learnt that being a leader involves making difficult strategic decisions and accepting the consequences for the choices made.
