Strategy Execution Mistake #3: Avoiding Conflict




Strategy Podcast With Alex Nesbitt show

Summary: In this episode of the strategy podcast, I focus on the third mistake companies make when it comes to strategy execution, and that is avoiding conflict. When management teams avoid conflict the rest of the organization pays the price. They are living the conflict every day, while the management team avoids dealing with the conflict. If you want to make your strategy execution flow, then you need to prioritize clarity over harmony and address conflict head-on. I discuss a number of sources of conflict and how to address them.
