QUESTION: When organizations struggle to execute, what is usually the bigger issue: structure, capability, or accountability?

[The Daily Executive @DailyExecutive]

Structure doesn’t create capability.
Start with what the business needs to achieve. Define the capability. Establish accountability. Then design the structure.

[The Daily Executive @DailyExecutive]
