Most strategic analysis starts from the wrong place. We begin by examining market dynamics, competitive positioning, and technological capabilities, treating these as independent variables, which enables us to gain a better understanding of reality.
But markets don't exist in a vacuum. They emerge from a cascading series of constraints, each layer limiting what's possible in the layers below.
The Structural Reality Framework reveals this hidden architecture. It demonstrates how geopolitical power structures ultimately determine market outcomes, which are shaped by economic policy, physical infrastructure, and ultimately manifest in what we refer to as "market competition."
Understanding this cascade is the difference between fighting reality and working with it.
