The 4 Disciplines of Execution (Revised Edition): The Secret to Getting Things Done, On Time, With Excellence

Focus on the Critical

In business, survival depends on meeting objectives. Most failures in organizations today are not the result of a lack of smarts, they are caused by a lack of execution -- things just don't get done. Defining a clear strategy and setting goals is one thing, sticking to strategy and meeting those goals is quite another. The 4 Disciplines of Execution teaches how to focus on your top priorities and get the critical things accomplished. Whether you are a member of a team, lead a team, or lead an entire organization, this workshop will equip you to deliver on your top priorities consistently.

What You'll Learn

Four universal business disciplines that deliver results again and again:

a. Focus on the Wildly Important
b. Create a Compelling Scoreboard
c. Translate Lofty Goals into Specific Actions
d. Hold Each Other Accountable -- All of the Time

Each discipline includes a business principle, old thinking, new thinking, and a metaphor that further clarifies the learning. A bonus section, "Implementing the Disciplines," supported by a special resource CD, gives critical information about activating the power of the 4 Disciplines in your organization.
