The VPs who thrive understand that their job is no longer to be the best functional expert in the room. Their job is to create outcomes through other people, influence decisions beyond their authority and help the business succeed as a whole.

The executive team owns the why and the what. But your VPs have to own the how and the when. If they are waiting for direction instead of shaping it, you aren't running a cohesive business.

It spreads when people can understand it, repeat it, believe it, and use it to make decisions every day.

Leadership teams spend months building strategies. The thinking is solid. The analysis is rigorous. The slides are beautiful.
Then six months later, nobody can explain what the strategy actually is.
Why? https://t.co/tHonXMbNQR
So we still tend to think about #strategy as an intellectual, analytical exercise but ideas don't spread through the organizations because they are rationally correct. They spread because they're psychologically effective. Listen here https://t.co/NPNWjqbwJQ
A strategy that can't spread through the organisation isn't really a strategy at all.
Watch the video and let me know: Could someone halfway down your organisation explain your strategy in their own words?

Ideas do not spread through companies because they are rationally correct. They spread because they are psychologically effective.
