This is something that most people don't think about. MBAs are taught this (or something similar) in their first few classes.
Vision >> Goals >> Strategies >> Tactics >> Projects
Everything flows from Vision; this is the "Grand Strategy" that the authors are alluding to.
No doubt that Bush's MBA is playing a role.

A poster on a thread the other day was sneering at the fact that President Bush was a history major at Yale. I didn't know that he was, but this person seemed certain of it and was not impressed.
I am impressed because I think being a history major with an MBA is an excellent qualification for president.

MBAs are taught this on a large scale, that is why they are the right type of people to lead existing organizations. not as good at start ups and very small companies.
President Bush is proof that he did not skip class at Harvard and had changed his focus after flying jets. His oil career may be less than spectacular, but he changed the day to day world of the Texas Rangers using many of the same managment ideas he is using in the government.
