This is quite well-written. I like his quoted description of the entrepreneur as "not worrying about the resources they lack, but about the resourcefulness required to get the big idea done." Seductively complimentary.
That said, I'm skeptical the first-order problem is really keeping a sense of the "big idea". Grand ambition is not uncommon - look at the amount of armchair quarterbacking that happens on this site alone. I think most organizations have a definite sense of possibility and fail more from an inability to either manage change, or to connect their ambitions to the more prosaic reality of the paying market.
