Common Pitfalls
We often observe organizations ploughing ahead without addressing implementation vulnerabilities, such as:
- Key leaders below the top team (N-1, N-2 and below) have only cursory opportunities for input
- Project plans are set without a real appreciation for who will have to do the heavy lifting, and an honest evaluation of whether conditions exist to get the job done
- People in critical roles are asked to do too much
- Change management efforts focus on general understanding and buy-in, and stop short of embedding behavior and mindset change
Strategic Strategy Execution
Achieving more outcome and more momentum with less time and wasted effort—requires asking and rigorously answering: What really matters in the mix of execution “priorities”? And what really matters to the people who are doing the executing?
Laser Focus, Agile Approach
Research shows that, even in large organizations, there are 30-50 roles that account for the crucial difference between successful and unsuccessful initiatives. We help you to identify these critical roles, ensure (within your realistic constraints) the best possible person is in each role, and that they have what they need to succeed.
In addition, we guide pinpointed behavior and mindset change with decision-making principles and team coaching, to reduce frictions in the transformation process.
Tipping Point outcomes include:
- A lean and unified network of leaders who are equipped to drive early success and serve as the backbone for ongoing progress
- Measurable behavior change momentum to propel subsequent, broader-based deployment
- Significant and tangible successes that inspire confidence
