How The Book is Organised
Ask the Right Questions
Section 1 looks at why executives should know how to ask the right questions, believing leaders should ask more than tell, listen more than command.
Solve the Correct Problems
Section 2 focuses on solving the correct problems, those specific to your organisation. These chapters clarify your individual strategy—building, framing, and mastering a value proposition far from and better than the competition.
Execute Change with Strategic Use of Teams
Section 3 encourages successful execution with the strategic use of teams. Executive Leaders should set the tone, establish alignment, and optimise operations, but they must also build employee engagement by living the organisation’s core values. They should define the future of work rather than fall victim to the transformation in the nature of the work.
Make Your Vision Real
Section 4 offers direction on making this vision real. Executive Leaders face challenges of size and scale that vary across economic sectors, products, and services. Challenges like these can be complicated and unpredictable.
