 Join Patrick Thean, an author who has written extensively about creating high-functioning teams, for his exciting session to help you take your company to the next level. Confidence contributes tremendously to great execution. If you start losing confidence, decision-making typically becomes tentative, leading to slower execution. Execution is a curious thing. It is multifaceted and non-linear. Some people make the mistake of thinking that execution is linear and only about metrics and processes. Step by step by step. That is Execution 101. It’s a good start, but don’t allow your journey towards great execution to be limited by just metrics and processes. Great execution comes from being able to predict, prepare, do, and adjust in order to adapt to what life throws at you.
