Three Horizons of Growth

Manage three horizons concurrently — defend and extend the core (H1), build emerging businesses (H2), and seed future options (H3) — because pipelines of growth need staggered maturity.

A modern caution: in fast markets, horizons are no longer time-based — disruptors execute 'H3' ideas at H1 speed, so the framework must be about type of innovation, not distance in years.
