Strategy Execution is no longer 'the gap nobody knows'. Thanks to the authors Bossidy and Charan, Strategy Execution pioneers Kaplan and Norton and respected business magazines such as The Harvard Business Review, organisations have become very aware that much great strategy is lost before it's turned into performance mainly as a result of poor execution skills. The performance gap is known. And it's time to close it.
I've made it my mission to continue the work of these pioneers, to be a Strategy Execution ambassador promoting its importance and helping managers to acquire the right skills to get the execution job done
