Quick answer
Strategic initiatives are the projects that execute strategy — chosen few, resourced fully, tracked as a portfolio; the bridge from plan to work.
What they are
The concrete projects that deliver strategy — ‘launch X’, ‘enter market Y’ — few and funded.

Choosing them
Few (3-7), linked to strategic goals, resourced to win — an initiative that can’t be resourced shouldn’t be chosen.
Tracking them
As a portfolio — milestones, owners, reviews; initiatives get executive visibility.
The failure
Initiatives without resources — strategy by naming is just a list.
Bottom line
Strategic initiatives are the projects that execute strategy — chosen few, resourced fully, tracked as a portfolio; the bridge from plan to work.
