Listen Later

How to execute and make things happen is the set of skills needed to turn ideas into reality. Many businesses place too much emphasis on those with good ideas which is maybe 5-10% of a solution and don’t emphasis the execution skills needed to turn ideas into concreate action and results – the 90%+ of the solution and the hard part.

In this podcast I share 8 key practical steps that will help you significantly improve how to execute and make things happen personally and through your teams. 

 Getting Teams to deliver consistently is hard work if you don’t know how approach the task. Execution or making things happen in the workplace is not taught as such. If you are lucky enough to have a manager who knows how to get colleagues to deliver and teams to deliver, then they may teach you about execution in business.

 How to execute is not hard learn. It does take practice and effort to develop the skills needed. Don’t be put off – executing in the workplace is a fantastic boost for promotional prospects and it will massively help you in your career progression. 

 The first step is to understand your team – what can they do and what can’t they do. Next work to get the right people in your team which makes your life as a manager a lot easier. 

 Understanding what your goals are, communicating your goals and getting all stakeholders aligned and agreed with those goals is another vital step. 

 Managing the team so there are clear owners for each step in the project or activity that you need to deliver, visibility of progress and the right support for each team member are also vital steps. 

 And finally, following-up so that you are signalling how important the project is through your actions and also being able to proactively support and help were needed is a step that managers rarely do enough of. 

 Use the steps we outline so you can deliver a lot more at work and get the rewards for achieving more.
