Strategy Execution Management & Culture Shift

“Without strategy, execution is aimless. Without execution, strategy is useless.” — Morris Chang, CEO, TSMC

“Vision without execution is hallucination.” — Thomas Edison

What is Strategy Execution Management?

Strategy Execution Management is the effective creation, deployment and accomplishment of strategic initiatives. Most companies don’t have Execution Management processes or systems in place and most companies don’t manage execution well.

If you are not consistently achieving your objectives, instilling a formal execution management methodology will serve you immediately.

Effective Execution Management allows companies to create the organizational competency of aligning the entire company with a clear coherent vision, designed culture, strategy, plans and objectives and managing execution at a team and individual level to achieve specific measurable results more predictably over time.

If creating alignment from top to bottom and an developing an organizational capacity to manage execution isn’t a critical strategic initiative, it should be.

Questions:

  • Would you like the company to hit its numbers more consistently and have results be increasingly more predictable?
  • Do you want to know at every moment,which individuals and teams are on track to meet their objectives and which are not?
  • Would you like to be confident in the company’s ability to execute the strategy and achieve critical objectives month to month and for the year?
  • Do you want assurance that all employees understand the strategy and their specific part in it?
  • Would you like all employees understand and be committed to specific goals that are linked to strategic initiatives and for which successful accomplishment will ensure achieving the top level success metrics?
  • Do you want to know managers are providing frequent feedback and coaching employees so results improve and become increasingly predictable?
  • Would you like more accountability and follow-through?

What could you achieve if your company instituted an execution management methodology so completely that it was completely ingrained in the company’s culture and results got better and more predictable over time?
