Precision, intelligence and allies are the key to success What does it mean to be strategic? What is it to be a tactician? Is everyone capable of these skills or are only a few? Who has these skills and/or qualities? Is it just for society's heroes or can others have these characteristics too? Medea, a barbarian from the city of Corinth, is a character in the play "Medea and other works" written by Euripides, she is a determined planner, who knows how to manage her intelligence in the surrounding environment and how to build allies to get out of a difficult situation; therefore, he should be part of the "Strategists' Club", which consists of honorable Greeks and non-Greeks in society, because he possesses the qualities that make a strategist. Control is the key to achieving your ultimate goal. Every strategist must have some sense of control or management in his intelligence to ensure that his plans are executed precisely. Medea is able to control others with her intelligence, to maneuver her plan in her surroundings. He knows people's weaknesses and plays on those. For example, regarding Creon, king of Corinth, he does not want to become a tyrant. So, as he chases Medea out of the city, she convinces him to let her stay there one more day for the sake of her children. Creon accepts his pleas, because "he is not a tyrant". This was Creon's weakness and Medea decided to pursue it to get what she wanted, kill the princess and make her husband Jason suffer. Medea performs such an action within a day. Medea has the characteristics of intelligence and control, which the strategist must endure to be effective. People who are not precise about their life's desires are like rocks traveling down a rushing river. Their lives do not flow easily, like those of... middle of the paper... people in Greek and non-Greek society. Why is Ulysses admirable? Ulysses is admirable for his strategicity. He maintains control and manages his intelligence in every situation, is precise in organizing plans and develops allies among people. Medea has the same traits. If Medea had not had these strategic skills, she would not have been able to make Jason, her husband, suffer by killing his loved ones and get away with it. If the “Strategists' Club” is made up only of strategic people, Medea should be able to join because she clearly exemplifies the qualities and traits of a strategist. If one is not allowed into a club that contains only strategists and clearly displays these traits, when acting in parallel with one of the most infamous Greek tacticians, then who can join? What are the characteristics of a strategist? There are also strategists?
