It involves effectively anticipating an opponent's moves and executing counteractions that outwit or surpass them, resulting in gaining a competitive advantage.
In various contexts, such as military, business, politics, or sports, outmaneuvering typically implies obtaining a favorable position, outcome, or advantage by using superior or innovative strategies. It encompasses the ability to think critically, adapt quickly, and make calculated moves that circumvent an adversary's actions or expectations. Outmaneuvering requires well-versed knowledge of an opponent's strengths, weaknesses, and patterns and utilizing this information to capitalize on potential opportunities.
This term emphasizes the element of intelligence and calculated planning, often involving a combination of agility, creativity, and analytical thinking. Successful outmaneuvering often leads to gaining control, influencing outcomes, achieving one's objectives, or securing an upper hand in a competitive situation.
Outmaneuvering can manifest in various forms, including circumventing obstacles, exploiting an opponent's vulnerabilities, finding innovative solutions, or deceiving or confusing opponents with unexpected actions. It is a dynamic process that evaluates risks, weighs different options, and executes decisions based on a calculated assessment of potential outcomes.
Overall, outmaneuvering is a concept that exemplifies strategic superiority, resourcefulness, and ingenuity in navigating competitive situations by achieving a positional or tactical advantage over adversaries.
The word "outmaneuvering" is derived from two separate words: "out" and "maneuver".
The word "out" is a preposition that means "outside" or "beyond". It is often used to indicate movement away from a particular point or position.
The word "maneuver" is a noun that originated from the French word "manœuvre", which means "manipulation" or "movement". It entered the English language in the 18th century and refers to a planned or skillful movement to gain an advantage or achieve a particular outcome.
When the noun "maneuver" is transformed into a verb by adding the suffix "-ing", it becomes "maneuvering", which means the act of performing a maneuver. By adding the preposition "out" before "maneuvering", the word "outmaneuvering" is formed.
