Strategy Execution

Strategy Execution is the process of implementing the organization’s strategy. It involves activities and processes designed to systematically coordinate and align resources and actions with mission, vision and strategy, enabling organizations to lead and communicate effectively in a climate of teamwork, continuous improvement, innovation, and change. In most organizations, there are gaps between the development of strategy, release of the strategic plan, and its successful implementation. BSI has worked with over 300 organizations worldwide on strategy development and implementation to close those gaps by focusing on five imperatives that are critical to successful strategy execution:Strategy Imperatives

  • Leadership and Governance
  • Creating a Performance Culture
  • Aligning and Operationalizing Strategy
  • Strategic Project/Portfolio Management
  • Performance Analysis, Reporting and Informing

Strategy Execution Training and Certification Program

The Strategy Execution Professional Certification program is offered by Strategy Management Group (SMG), with an optional joint certification from The George Washington University Center for Excellence in Public Leadership (GW CEPL). Led by experienced facilitating consultants, this program is designed to bridge the gap between strategic planning and effective implementation.

The certification focuses on five critical strategy execution imperatives, providing participants with practical tools and techniques to transform abstract goals into actionable strategies. Unlike traditional strategic planning courses, this program emphasizes hands-on application, equipping leaders, managers, and analysts with the skills to overcome common execution challenges.

The course content covers essential aspects of strategy execution, including leadership and governance, creating a performance culture, aligning and operationalizing strategy, project/portfolio management, and performance analysis and reporting. This comprehensive approach ensures participants gain the necessary skills to effectively implement organizational strategies and drive tangible results.
