As we move into 2012, companies will find that strategy execution will become more critical than ever. The pressures on senior managers to deliver on their promises to their key stakeholders is going to be immense because they are going to find that there is no where to hide. This pressure will flow down through the organization ensuring that everyone will feel it regardless of what level in the organization they are. Those that don't execute well, will be moved to other pastures.
The chaos in world markets throughout 2011 bought senior managers time - time that they will find they don't have going into 2012. This is an exciting time for companies and I sincerely believe that those that execute well will be rewarded and those that don't will spend the next 5 years playing catch up. We will see a new pecking order emerging amongst companies. Companies will shed strategy execution tourists and embrace talent that want to contribute.
Yes, this is an exciting time for us all. Wishing you a wonderful and prosperous 2012.
Yours in execution.
