The Four Disciplines of Execution

 

DURATION:  Two Days

COURSE OVERVIEW:  Executing strategic goals is by far the greatest challenge in business today. Aligning the organization with your most important objectives is a never-ending battle. In fact, research shows that execution breaks down in four ways; People: 1) don’t know the goal; 2) don’t know what to do to achieve the goal; 3) don’t keep score; and 4) don’t account for results. Imagine an organization where all employees are totally focused on the most important priorities and committed to achieving the wildly important goals.
The 4 Disciplines of Execution: Skills Workshop provides the principles, skills, and tools necessary to execute flawlessly again and again. It’s a singular training experience that builds the execution capability of individual team members. Participants create their own goals and measures relevant to the organization’s priorities and develop skills to identify and execute critical work goals. They also create personal motivating scoreboards and apply personal accountability to produce results.

KEY TOPICS:

1) Focus on the wildly important by sifting through urgent priorities and helping define what’s most important to the organization;
2) Act on the lead measures and identify key actions that foster goal accomplishment;
3) Keep a compelling scoreboard and track key measures of success; and
4) Create a cadence of accountability by building an individual planning and accounting system to get the most important work done

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

Help individuals execute key goals with excellence.
Help individuals develop personal work goals and measures of success.
