Disciplines of Execution

TM

the essential difference between teams that succeed and those that dont

Effective teams and organisations excel at execution. This programme provides four clear disciplines that, if properly applied, will ensure that there is focus and execution on the organisations top priorities. To be successful in todays competitive marketplace, organisations need individual contributors and teams focused on and executing the companys top priorities everyday. For these organisations and their people to achieve goals they have never achieved before, they have to do things they have never done before. They need their employees to have a common language for executing on the organisations goals and to feel accountable to one another for getting the work done. Do the teams in your organisation know the difference between goals that are merely important and those that are mission critical? Do they have a visible, accessible, dynamic scoreboard to keep track of key measures of their success? Do they translate high-level work goals into individual key goals and tasks? Do they continuously renew commitment to these key goals and hold each other accountable all of the time?

DISCIPLINE 2 Create a Compelling Scoreboard DISCIPLINE 3 Translate Lofty Goals Into Specific Actions DISCIPLINE 4 Hold Each Other Accountable All of the Time
