I've always prided myself on being a detail person. I can make a small picture look pretty good for a limited time without much difficulty.

Without a sense of the Big Picture, or at least the Grand Strategy, the accomplishments of tactical competence and logistical expertise are ephemeral, at best. Sometimes even counter-productive.
