For most people in the business world, competition is a constant. Salary negotiations, vendor contracts, client acquisitions, resource allocation, the list goes on. But sometimes, the most strategic move is not to take action but to hold back.   

This is the essence of strategic forbearance—the decision to intentionally avoid counteracting in certain situations for future gain. In today’s political and business landscape, where retaliation often seems to be the default response to every perceived challenge or threat, it’s more important than ever to consider the power of strategic forbearance.
