The most valuable and successful leaders and managers today are those who consistently deliver on the promised results of strategic initiatives. While visionary thinking and breakthrough innovation are still important ingredients, organizations are increasingly recognizing that the real competitive differentiator is the ability to execute strategic initiatives reliably and deliver expected results—every time.

How can you ensure your future value and success as a leader and manager? Sign up now for Conner Partners' workshop.

Successfully Executing Strategic Change (SESC)

New Dates Coming Soon!

Leveraging more than three decades of research and real-world success in the arena of project execution, Conner Partners developed the Execution Engineering™ framework to reach beyond traditional change execution approaches. Applied at the strategy, initiative, and project levels, Execution Engineering is a reliable way to realize the expected benefits of major endeavors. Revolutionary in its approach, this compelling framework integrates the three most important elements of execution success: intent (defining and maintaining the integrity of the vision), people (diagnosing and addressing the human issues in change), and delivery (governing and managing the work of implementation).

Successfully Executing Strategic Change (SESC) brings the lessons of Execution Engineering to your change initiative. This highly interactive, hands-on, practical, and engaging two-day workshop introduces you to a successful path for achieving the realization of your strategic change initiatives. You will:

• Explore a new way of thinking about what it takes to succeed at major change
• Apply a realization mindset to your project
• Define initial steps to increase the likelihood that your project will succeed

You will learn:

• The difference between installation (getting solutions in place) and realization (shifting behaviors and building commitment to actually achieve the intended business result)
• Why 70% of change efforts fail to deliver realization
• The fundamentals of the Conner Partners approach to transformational change that enables its client partners to achieve greater than 90% realization rates
• The three core elements of the Execution Engineering framework—intent, people, and delivery—and the power of their integration
• A high-level review of the steps to successful change execution

You will walk away with:

• Answers regarding why strategy execution is so challenging and what you could do differently to ensure success
• An introduction to a common language that describes core concepts, mindsets, and frameworks critical to a successful strategy execution
• A clear understanding of your role and the roles and responsibilities of other key players in the change execution process
• Tools and job aids that will assist you in immediately improving your execution capabilities
• A list of next steps to the delivery of expected results from your initiative

Course pre-work includes a short survey regarding the experience of your organization in executing strategic change projects.

Good strategies alone don't create competitive advantage.
The ability to execute them does.
