Ram Charan Video: Six Building Blocks of Execution

Here’s a nice video of Ram Charan discussing his and Larry Bossidy’s Six Building Blocks of Execution.   As you watch this video, consider doing three things:

  1. Writing down in your notebook each building block;
  2. Rating your team’s performance in each area (1 poor, 2 fair, 3 good, 4 excellent);
  3. Listing three actions you can take right away to improve your execution in your weakest area(s).

Ideally this exercise would be done with colleagues.  As Ram points out, none of the six steps is new they simply need to be practiced.  Best of all you don’t need a Harvard PhD to do them.
