Trendslop
Hello Fellow Strategist,
We're back!
After a longer-than-expected break, #StratChat is reconvening for two special sessions — with Francis Wade stepping in as host for both.
Session 1 — Wednesday, June 18 at 14h00 UK time
Topic: Beyond "Trendslop"
A March 2026 HBR article dropped a word into the strategy conversation that I think will stick: "Trendslop" — the generic, AI-generated strategic advice that sounds authoritative but tells every company roughly the same thing.
The researchers found that when LLMs are asked for strategic advice, the outputs converge on familiar frameworks, safe platitudes, and industry averages. The result looks like strategy. It isn't.
That raises the real question: what does rigorous, company-specific strategy look like in an AI-infused world — and how do we get there?
Read the article before we meet: Researchers Asked LLMs for Strategic Advice. They Got "Trendslop" in Return https://hbr.org/2026/03/researchers-asked-llms-for-strategic-advice-they-got-trendslop-in-return |
