Guide Review - Six Disciplines Execution Revolution

What do you get when you combine 30 years of experience, 100 man-years of development, and $20 million in funding? According to Gary Harpst, you get his new book Six Disciplines Execution Revolution.

The book, which is aimed at small to mid-size businesses, emphasizes the importance of executing strategy. Harpst guides business leaders through the art of building an organization that can plan, execute, and address problems as they arise.

Specific things that business leaders will learn include:
  • How to implement a strategy execution program.
  • How to introduce accountability coaching to employees.
  • How to use repeatable methodology to achieve success.
  • Five organizational errors that can destroy your execution program.
I enjoyed Six Disciplines Execution Revolution and I think it would be useful to any business manager or student who wants to learn more about managing cash-flow, competition, employee retention, recession, and other problems that plague businesses.
