A great book for biz owners who want to go from good to great!

While a little a dry at times, this book provides great detail on how companies differentiate themselves by not only telling, but doing! Execution and communication seem to be the two biggest impediments to a successful business and this book outlines how to best manage through the first. There are several specific examples of how good execution can literally make a company....with that, I do recommend this book to any biz owners interested in improving their chances of success!

execution 101

I did receive this book in an executive seminar; read it over couples of nights, a simple book with day to day tips to make things happen.

A must read for any one how dreams to become a successful executive and a reality check for those already there.

Universal truths presented but people views flawed

I thought there were many good take-aways in this book. Was it all original? Of course not. Most management books are saying the same things with a slightly different twist. I've got a bookshelf full of them. However, it seems that humans are so often incapable of remembering the fundamentals and have a tendency to overcomplicate things thus history repeats itself over and over.

The tone of the book regarding people gave me a little pause. Although I do think they were spot on in their assessment of how many companies do succession planning (not at all or incorrectly), it does seem to advocate that everyone needs to be a mini-Jack Welch type persona. I've worked in a company managed by ex-GE guys and believe me, they don't have it all figured out. I think organizations will benefit by having a mix of skills. Some people are better doers and others are better thinkers. Some superstars are good at both. It takes all types.

Not for Individual Execution - SMP Solutions

When I brought this book, my attention was to focus on personal and business execution. There was no personal execution which obviously discouraged me from reading the whole book.

On the other hand it was great for organizational execution or for CEO's of large companies. I feel the advice was solid.
