STRATEGY EXECUTION AND AGILE LEADERSHIP

“…Strategy execution is about translating an organization’s strategic initiatives into action….”

TARGET PARTICIPANTS:

COURSE GOAL/DESCRIPTION

There is a well-known anecdotal business statistic that 90% of organizations fail to execute on their strategies. The source of this statistic is not clear, whatever the actual figure is 60% or 90% really does not matter, it is still very clear that the biggest inhibitor to business success is the inability to execute on strategy.

Further analysis suggests that while a huge effort is often put into the definition of strategic imperatives, hardly any effort is put into strategic execution and measurement. In other words, we all get excited about great ideas, but few of us want to get down to the business of implementation.

Strategy execution is about translating an organization’s strategic initiatives into action. As this final step is what can sometimes be an arduous process, strategy execution means translating the strategic initiatives spelled out in your plan into specific measures that your organization will undertake over a defined timeframe. For many business managers and leaders, strategy execution is a moment of truth: will all the high-level plans and multi-year projects come to fruition as envisaged?

Strategy execution and agile leadership sensitizes participants to the mindset necessary to think and act strategically as they lead and execute work in their organizations. This program also assists managers and other leaders develop the agile and mindset, understand how to best support, guide, and coach their teams to improve their agile capabilities.
