The Strategy Activation Playbook by Aric Wood
Our old models of change management and strategy execution assume that organisations are monolithic and can move directly from strategy making to strategy doing. But the modern organisation is made up of increasingly more diverse, empowered, and free thinking people, and we need to evolve how we launch our strategies to ensure we engage, align, and empower diverse groups of people to move forward together. If you want to be part of the 20 percent of leaders who succeed, then you need a new playbook for bringing your strategy to life. With The Strategy Activation Playbook, author Aric Wood, CEO of XPLANE, teaches you how to do what he’s helped organisations around the world accomplish: align and activate the people in your organisation to execute your strategy and realise your vision.
