The North Star

Dec 9 2021 • 1 hr

This episode of The North Star will highlight best practices for end-to-end strategy execution based on insights collected from the more than 2 dozen industry experts interviewed over the past 6 months. These interviews, which covered topics as wide ranging as innovation, organizational design, strategy formulation, artificial intelligence, program execution, work management, data management, software design and development, and systems modernization, highlighted the challenges organizations face leveraging these disciplines in an integrated context. Today, most organizations either ignore many of the advancements in these and other disciplines, or they cordon them off into silos, with little or no insight into how to collectively maximize their collective value. Organizations lacking a formal strategy execution framework also lack the perspective needed to maximize the advances being made in many of these fields and disciplines. In this episode, William Ulrich will frame these disciplines within the context of an integrated strategy execution framework, providing business leaders a roadmap for adopting existing and integrating new disciplines under a formal, framework that enables organizations to streamline and improve strategy execution.
