I saw that leaders placed too much emphasis on what some call high level strategy, on intellectualizing and philosophizing, and not enough on implementation. People would agree on a project or initiative, and then nothing would come of it.

Execution is the ability to mesh strategy with reality, align people with goals, and achieve the promised results.

People tend to look at their businesses from the inside out - that is, they get so focused on making and selling their products that they lose awareness of the needs and buying behaviors of their customers.

How people talk to each other absolutely determines how well the organization will function.

At the end of the day you bet on people, not on strategies.

Complexity has nothing to do with intelligence, simplicity does.
