There are three main reasons why organisations fail to extract full value from their strategy creation to strategy execution process:

1. We fail to align on a single source of the truth.
2. We don’t place enough emphasis on strategy execution.
3. We get lost in translation.

Strategy creation is not a passive delegation process. It is an active participation process that happens at every level in an organisation in order to breed success for every individual.

What to expect in this episode:

(06:40): Why your strategy might be failing.

(10:06): Is your strategy getting lost in translation?

(12:00): How to prevent losing sight of the purpose when there’s so much focus on goals and measures of success.

Fostering a culture of openness and transparency means regularly evaluating and reviewing performance.

People leaders provide clarity and alignment by setting goals and KPIs during performance reviews and Team Plan workshops. These are revisited in regular forums to evaluate progress, celebrate wins and reflect on lessons learned along the way.

Regular evaluation and review forums create context, meaning and connection to your company’s purpose, values and vision. They create a cadence around which all work activities revolve and help teams remain not just accountable, but motivated, because they are times when we actively observe progress and experience a sense of achievement.

What to expect in this episode:

(07:35): How to effectively evaluate and review performance.

(10:11): What can happen at an annual leave if there’s criticism?

(16:53): Where CEOs need to be heavily involved.
