EXECUTING A PLAN EFFECTIVELY

You have developed a great plan to help you achieve your goals. The team feels momentum! Next, comes the execution of the plan. Often, that is where the momentum slows. There are many plans on office shelves gathering dust. You have learned the hard way that the execution of the plan is almost always harder than the actual planning. Learn, once and for all, how to turn your creative vision into a reality. 

Executing a Plan Effectively is designed to empower teams to define and achieve quality results. It enables you to meticulously focus on your significant audacious goals, the ones that if achieved, will have a significant impact on your organization. The stats show there is, to put it lightly, ‘quite some room for improvement’ in the strategy execution field. In fact, a measly 2% of leaders are confident that they will achieve 80-100% of their strategy’s objectives.

Why is it hard to achieve them? We struggle with the daily activities we call, “The Vortex.” There are always competing priorities and you need to be vigilant to keep a laser-sharp focus on what is important, not just urgent.

The principles we convey are unassuming yet profound. They empower individuals & teams to achieve quality results by meticulously focusing on shared goals that would have the highest impact on the organization. You will learn the key principles & steps often missed in getting the most important things done.

As part of the emphasis we place on experiential learning, you will help solve some challenges in realistic case studies. Participants will then transfer the skills learned in the case study to their world to identify the root causes of some challenges they are facing and come up with potential solutions.

Tool Used: Participants use a “Problem Solving Style Inventory Self- Assessment” which illustrates a person’s preferred problem-solving technique: Ego-Oriented, We-Oriented, Deferred, Other-Oriented or I/We-Oriented. Depending on the situation, each of these five styles is a useful managerial approach when solving problems and making decisions.
