The Strategic Change Journey

“In the majority of failures – we estimate 70% – the real problem isn’t bad strategy…. It’s bad execution.”

“Why CEO’s Fail”, Fortune Magazine

“Less than 10% of strategies effectively formulated are effectively executed”

Fortune Magazine

Principles of High Performance:

1. Purpose is customer driven…

…solve their problems.

2. 85% of problems are process (not people)…

…deliver faster, better, cheaper;

…leadership is a process.

3. Engage people…

…involve employees, differentiate

performance, develop leaders.
