On-Line Livestream Webinar Series 1: Strategy 2 Execution

Introduction - A Case Study

Picture
Manchester City FC won the English Premier League in seasons 2018 and 2019, and were the first team ever to achieve 100 points. But in their first season under legendary head coach Josep (Pep) Guardiola, the players and coaching staff had struggled to understand his strategy, let alone execute it!

It felt strange, unfamiliar. Players were tested for their abilities and were left behind, drills and disciplines were introduced to instill new beliefs about how football (or soccer) should be played, and new fitness and nutritional routines were introduced.  But it looked weird on the pitch.

Ask the players today, and you will find each of them knows what to do, how to do it and why to do it (Simon Sinek in reverse!). And they believe in the vision.  They believe in the strategy.

​Strategy 2 Execution

This is a set of four interactive live webinars, each of 90 minutes duration. They can be booked individually or as a complete series. By attending the complete series, you will:

  • Review current thought on strategy synthesis, communication, engagement and execution
  • Use critical thinking to challenge the paradigms and metaphors in common use
  • Discuss improvements to current thinking, and review a simple model with great utility
  • Understand the dangers of the “choice-less doer”, and the benefits of empowerment
  • Accelerate the learning curve of your organisation
  • Use case studies and examples to illustrate all of the above in a real-life context
  • Be equipped with a set of support tools to make life easier (see below)

The first session will set the scene, introduce some fundamental concepts, and equip you with the tools we will apply. In livestream sessions 2 to 4, we will “deep-dive” into the following critical areas:
​
  • Management and Leadership
  • Organisational Capability
  • Organisational Culture

Importantly, we must continually test our discussions throughout against the “new normal” of working from home, managing remote and distributed teams, and other aspects of our fluid environment; not only the COVID 19 pandemic, but social change, technology, climate change and more.

​​Coverage of Livestream Session One (Wednesday 22nd July 11.30 am AEST)

​QUICK REVIEW OF CURRENT THOUGHT – STRATEGY SYNTHESIS

  • Figure 8 cascade
  • Multiple loops
  • Case Study – Australia’s COVID 19 Response
  • Case Study – New Zealand auto aftermarket

  • Aligned by Sinek's Golden circle (“Start with Why?”)
QUICK REVIEW OF CURRENT THOUGHT – STRATEGY EXECUTION

CONCLUSIONS AND BRIEFING (SEE BELOW)

Briefing for Deep-Dive Sessions (July 29th, Aug 5th, Aug 12th)

​We will cover the criticality of each key success area, apply tools to allow you to “audit” your preparedness, help you to accelerate the organisational “learning curve”, and to build a culture of seamless integration of strategy and execution.  Further support materials for these “deep-dive” webinars will include a workbook for personal annotation, checklists of hints for strategy execution, FAQ document, and live links to quoted references, video clips and information sources.
