Which Lever is the Strongest Predictor of Success?
To enable effective strategy execution, companies are best advised to:
– Define: execution plans early in the strategy formulation process
– Target: the strategy execution levers to achieve the full potential of strategic plans
– Develop: initiatives that move beyond traditional strategy communication methods
