Execution in Large Product & Technology Organizations
Strategies often fail not because they lack vision, but because execution falters. Leadership teams face challenges like disjointed governance, weak follow-through, blurred accountability, and reward systems that fail to encourage the desired actions. The consequence is a loss of value as strategic intent doesn’t fully convert into impact.
Actions:
Build governance frameworks that ensure clear agendas and consistent follow-up.
Introduce performance systems such as OKRs and MBO to tightly align everyday work with long-term goals.
Create incentive structures that support a healthy culture and reinforce the right behaviours.
Blend structure with flexibility to enable execution that is disciplined yet adaptable.
Support leadership as both a guide and a catalyst to maintain progress over time.
