Master strategy execution with expert guidance
Don’t just treat the symptoms of failed strategies. Understand the root causes and build capabilities to execute effectively.
When 7 out of 10 goals miss the mark, what’s the real problem?
More than 70% of organizations' most important goals are never achieved as planned. This is mainly due to:
Misaligned goals and priorities
Teams often struggle to connect daily activities with strategic objectives, leading to inefficiencies and lost focus.
Lack of real-time feedback
Without continuous insights, organizations fail to adapt quickly to changing conditions, missing critical opportunities.
Ineffective resource allocation
Poorly aligned investments in time, budget, and talent result in wasted potential and delayed progress.
Siloed efforts and communication gaps
Fragmented teams and processes hinder collaboration, creating bottlenecks and reducing overall impact.

Is it hard to keep the customer needs in focus? That’s one of the symptoms of a disconnected impact chain.

Quickly fact-check your team’s outcome centricity and learn to boost it.
After this workshop you will be ready to have just the right discussions with your stakeholders to make sure your own work is aiming at the biggest impact.

At the end of this workshop you’ll have unpacked the framework you’re using and know which aspects to adjust for better performance.
Workshop 5: From Framework Jungle to Solution
Don’t blindly trust OKRs, SAFe or Scrum - choose a framework based on your individual needs.
Too often, organizations serve a framework, they do not have the competence to adjust it to their needs.
Unpack Scrum, OKRs, SAFe, Hoshin Kanri and many more in their core building blocks and understand the principles
Learn how to choose, adjust or even assemble a framework for your organization’s goals and challenges
For your organization, you will be ready to choose and adjust the best-fitting framework.
Workshop 6: How Structures shape Execution
Using the wrong model gets you stuck: The org chart is not the only reality.
If you always followed the lines of your org chart, would you get anything done?
Every organization follows many models: reporting lines, informal networks, value streams and more. Learn to pick the right one for the right challenge.
Find more constructive angles in stuck discussions using our model-mapping tool.
You will be ready to improve your colleagues’ strategy execution by applying the right models with them.
Workshop 7: Roles, Functions and Empathy
Strategy doesn’t get you far, people’s motivations do. Anticipate and channel them.
It is tough work to align stakeholders around a problem. Learn to anticipate and connect their needs.
Go beyond roles: you will not change complicated colleagues but we can adjust to personal needs and improve collaboration.
Know toolsets to integrate empathy-building exercises in your workshops.
At the end of the workshop you will be ready to improve your own and your colleagues’ capability to adjust to colleagues' perspectives.
Workshop 8: Organizational Capability Management for Execution
