In this episode of Playing Books, we discuss Execution: The Discipline of Getting Things Done by Larry Bossidy, Ram Charan, and Charles Burck—a timeless business classic that redefined leadership by shifting the focus from vision alone to the discipline of making things happen.
As The New York Times declared, “A must-read for anyone who cares about business.” And for good reason. Execution isn’t just about strategies and plans—it’s about connecting people, strategy, and operations into a seamless process that drives real results. Bossidy and Charan remind us that in today’s fast-changing world, where old rules are shattered and radical shifts are the norm, the ability to execute is more vital than ever.
In this discussion, we’ll explore why:
Companies that execute well thrive even in slower growth environments.
Fierce competition rewards those who move with speed and precision.
Governments and regulations reshape industries—and how execution keeps you resilient.
Risk management and adaptability give leaders an undeniable edge.
Whether you’re an executive, entrepreneur, or professional striving to sharpen your leadership edge, this episode will give you actionable insights into building a culture of accountability, realism, and performance.
