Why Does this Happen?
In our work we’ve asked our clients for answers. They point to things like disinterest, misunderstanding, misplaced self-interest, and failure to follow through.
We’ve learned that the nature of today’s work calls for new perspectives and new practices that have not always been taught or institutionalized. If companies are to succeed in today’s competitive, changing environment, their leaders must master new tools and develop new ways of working with and through others.
What Can We Do?
In our experience effective execution for this age comes down to three key elements:
- A New Frame of Reference: A different leadership and management perspective that will change how leaders think about setting direction and getting work done.
