How to Make Your High Tech Firm Smart in 2 Steps

I wrote recently that high-tech world is a VUCA world. To survive and succeed out there, your high tech firm has to be smart. 

According to synonym.com the adjective smart has seven senses:

 - showing mental alertness and calculation and resourcefulness;

- elegant and stylish;

- characterized by quickness and ease in learning;

- improperly forward or bold;

- capable of independent and apparently intelligent action.

Well, I guess that you would like your firm to be smart in all those senses. It must be intelligent, capable and mature. Here's the oversimplified algorithm in making smart your high-tech firm in 2 steps.
