LEADING STRATEGIC EXECUTION

Strategies are only as effective as their implementation. Strategies and plans are vital to any organization, yet those strategies and plans typically hit roadblocks in execution. Managers need to deal with these roadblocks, and practice the necessary skills to lead people in execution. 

This training course is based on a scientifically validated model of execution competencies, which have been tested in the Philippine business setting.

The course, conducted over four half-day online sessions, drills participants in a disciplined framework for leading execution. On the first two sessions, participants:

• Learn how to focus on critical priorities

• Identify sources of misalignment among different parts and silos of their organization and apply an appropriate alignment mechanism

• Create an execution calendar, including identifying possible obstacles to execution and crafting contingency plans to overcome these obstacles

On the third and fourth sessions, participants: 

• Are engaged in concepts and exercises that illustrate five leadership behaviors that are essential in execution; the leadership behaviors are derived from a scientific model based on the Philippine business setting, that has been peer-reviewed and published in an international academic journal

Throughout, discussions will also take into account the particular challenges of executing strategies in the pandemic business environment, such as the need to be agile, the need to be flexible in changing strategies as the situation changes.
