However smart your business strategy is in theory, it will have little effect if you fail to carry it out. A survey by the Economist Intelligence Unit suggests that companies typically realise only about 60% of their strategy's potential value because of failures in planning and execution.

Corporate politics, peronalities and turf wars, and misunderstood intentions and silo thinking combined with changing circumstances result in the strategic focus becoming dimmed or distorted. And this loss of focus is rarely noticed because few companies track performance against long-term plans.

Drawing on original research, together with work carried out by London Business School, Cranfield School of Management, UCLA and consulting firms, this book outlines the ways in which organisations such as Reuters, Diageo, Pfizer, Deutsche Bank and IBM are carrying out their strategy more effectively.
