EXECUTE!

Moving your team from Strategy to Commitment to Action

75% OF CORPORATE TRANSFORMATIONS FAILS

Corporate transformations still have a miserable success rate, even though scholars and consultants have significantly improved our understanding of how they work. Studies consistently report  that about 75% of change efforts flop – either they fail to deliver the anticipated benefits or they are abandoned entirely

N. Anand, Jean Louis Barsoux – HBR, Dec 2017

 What everyone gets wrong about change management

BUSINESS REALITY

  • Significant cost and market pressure within the business model
  • An urgent requirement to deliver results over the short term, and set the business over the long term
  • Biggest barrier to long-term execution is a lack of employee interaction
  • Executing change management effectively, remains elusive
  • Change management and execution often occurs in “silos” within the organization, and the overall impact is low
  • Business models are disrupted by innovation
  • Inability to translate strategy into operational mechanisms
  • Requirement to develop a culture in the organization that embraces innovation, risks and commitment – a cohesive high performance delivery culture

COLLABORATE TO EXECUTE

In 2016 we asked 80 senior executives from 20 countries and 25 industries where they focus their attention throughout strategic execution. 

We asked what, in their experience, were the biggest barriers to long-term execution — and 76% cited employee interaction. In other words, people failing to work together to make change happen.

Alison Reynolds, David Lewis - HBR, OCTOBER, 2017

Closing the Strategy-Execution Gap Means Focusing on What Employees Think, Not What They Do

EXECUTION PROCESS IS FOCUSED ON

  1. Spending the time and energy to creatively identify and drive alternatives
  2. Collaboration which drives accountability and responsibility
  3. Common priorities – act on maximum impact and high pay-back
  4. Identification of tools required to deliver alternatives

IMPRO​VED BUSINESS RESULTS

GREAT LEADERS WILL ANSWER THE CALL TO ACTION.
THEIR COMMITMENT TO WHAT THEY BELIEVE TO BE TRUE AND OF VALUE WILL ALWAYS BE IN THE FOREFRONT OF THEIR MINDS, MOTIVATING THEIR ACTION.
COMMITMENT REMAINS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT IN ANY SUCCESS STORY


We know it's easy to sit in a room and talk strategy.  But it is another matter altogether to execute the strategy. Senior executives often underestimate the amount of time, energy and oversight required to see a successful strategy through. It is often far easier to design a strategy than it is to implement and execute it successfully. It requires commitment and action -  helping your team to stay on course despite difficulties and seeing the task through to completion.

I really enjoyed the breakdown of the presentation into different sections. The story of the CEO was great - as it is relatable and people always love to hear a story and what happens in the end. Great content and good visuals. The analogy of photography techniques transferring into self awareness techniques is very clever!
