5.0 out of 5 stars A handbook for creating and executing on strategy
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 4, 2022
In all the companies I've worked with, leadership has always had a problem knowing how to create a strategy, but more importantly, how to follow through and EXECUTE. Even if the strategy gets written, it often sits on the shelf, with little or nothing to show for the effort that went into building it. Darcy Bien provides a step-by-step guide to building a strategy that is based on what you need to know, as a business owner or executive, with all the tools to make it happen. It's an eye-opener.

This book is a great combination of theory and words of wisdom, with practical steps and templates that you can use. Interspersed are some great client stories, which gave me a real sense of where things can go wrong, and what it looks like if you persist.

The approach is structured into four parts, two of which build the strategy, and the final two plan the implementation and the management of the strategy execution. At the end is a chapter on Why Strategies Fail. Make sure you read that one!

And it's in color!! Who even does that? It's a pleasure to dive in and discover how to be a strategy superstar. I'm recommending it to all my business clients.
