Execute Your Strategy: Turn Planning into Results or Destroy it and Start Over Again WEBCAST

Overview

Organizations that execute a wise strategy succeed; others are executed in the market. Many organizations invest significant amounts of time in strategic planning but fall short when it comes to execution. According to McKinsey, most fail to properly execute their strategy. This session explores the critical transition from strategy to performance while challenging outdated planning models and myths. We often do not think of strategy in the same context of longer-term organizational projects like ERP transitions or risk management. Why should you consider killing your current plan and building a new plan centered around financial performance? We will dive into the reasons strategy fails, uncover the practical tools for bridging the planning-performance gap, and explore how strong financial integration enables strategy to succeed. We review insight into what works—and what must be stopped immediately. The author uses Coca-Cola as a baseline to communicate elements of strategy and incorporates funny videos to highlight key points.
