Executing strategic goals is the greatest challenge in business today.
Aligning the organization's work teams with your most important
objectives is a never-ending battle. In addition, keeping teams engaged
and focused on the top goals is critical. Imagine an organization where
every team--from senior leadership to the front line--is focused on the
most important priorities and committed to achieving the Wildly
Important Goals.
FranklinCovey has studied the topic of execution for several years in
thousands of teams and in hundreds of organizations. Our research shows
that execution breaks down in four ways:
- People and teams don't know the goals. Either there are too many
goals or the goals aren't clear.
- People and teams don't know what to do to achieve the goals. The
goals are not translated into day-to-day activities.
- People and teams don't keep score. Few can tell at any moment if
they are on track to achieve the organization's critical goals.
- People and teams are not held accountable. For results, employees
need relevant and timely feedback and regular accountability.

breakdowns.
