Your business success is not merely having a goal, a direction, a vision. It is the ability to change, to create the process, the organization, the capabilities and culture, that result in performance. This course is a roadmap that will enable you to successfully execute strategy.

Business Strategy Execution is a hot topic in management today. The Conference Board's recent Survey of CEOs revealed that chief executives are so concerned about strategy execution that they rated it as both their number one and number two most challenging issue.
Why does strategy execution so often fail? Because most strategic plans are little more than a series of vertically integrated objectives. But, the problem is not objectives and it is not vertical. It is the "whole-system" and its ability to adapt and align, internally and externally in fast cycles. In other words, to be agile. The problem is the culture and capabilities of the organization and a process to design and deploy those capabilities. This course provides that process and is based on forty years of experience improving the performance of organizations.
The problem is developing new capabilities and a new culture that will enable the organization to achieve its goals. The term "Agile" implies an iterative process of experimentation, learning, adaptation to the changing environment, and alignment with other business units and support groups. This course is about creating that agility, adaptation and alignment.
Every organization has capabilities that are embedded in the culture. This course will take the leader through a process of assessing the current culture, its assets and liabilities, sensing the changing landscape that presents threats and opportunities, and then engaging the organization in the design of those processes and systems that will represent competitive advantage.
The author of this course is the author of ten books on leadership, lean management and change process. This course includes the text and material from three of his books.
Dr. Aadam is an interventional gastroenterologist who
possesses specialized expertise in gastrointestinal oncology, as well as
complex pancreas and biliary disorders. He is an integral member of a
multi-disciplinary team that incorporates the latest research and
state-of-the-art technology into a patient-centered comprehensive care plan.
Dr. Aadam is actively engaged in clinical research and has been invited to
present his work at several national conferences. He has undergone additional training
to perform advanced endoscopic procedures, including endoscopic ultrasound
(EUS), ERCP, and stent placement within the gastrointestinal tract. Currently,
he is leading the initiative in endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), which
allows for the removal of early cancers in the gastrointestinal tract using a
flexible endoscope as an alternative to invasive surgery in certain situations.
In the classroom, it is imperative to create a cooperative
community that models the importance of mutual respect and cooperation among
all community members. As an educator, I am skilled in adapting to students'
diverse learning styles to ensure that each student is provided with an
equitable opportunity to learn and succeed.
