The 4 Disciplines of Execution™: Manager Certification®
SMS Covey TC To 56677
Challenge
When it comes to attaining wildly important organizational goals, the role of the manager in the execution process is critical. Yet managers too often are foggy about what the key goals are, and they typically have too many goals to begin with. In contrast, picture an organization where the management is totally focused on the most important priorities and committed to helping their teams achieve the wildly important goals.
Solution
Unlike most traditional training, the purpose of The 4 Disciplines of Execution: Manager Certification is not to develop skills only, but to help managers create actual work plans. The outcome of this work session is to identify the most important goals for each manager and team to pursue, then to create measures and identify the key activities that will predict goal achievement.
