EP22 - The Four Disciplines of Execution with Chris McChesney

You can learn strategy in every business school, but, hardly anyone learns execution. And the most important part of strategy is executing. 

Execution often feels very particular to a situation. It doesn’t lend itself to best practices that can be shared from one environment to another. Best practices are okay, but principles are gold. There is a distinction between practices and principles. 

Talking about execution in today’s podcast is Chris McChesney from 4DX. Chris got involved with Stephen Covey 30 years ago and for the last 20 of those years, with the team at Franklin Covey, he’s been working on finding solutions to the problem of execution. From that came the best selling book, “The 4 Disciplines of Execution: Achieving Your Wildly Important Goals,” which was created to help entrepreneurs with their problem of execution. The book has literally changed IPC Chairman Chris Reynolds’s life and his views around goal setting and tactics. One of his favorite quotes from the book: “Strategy is easy – implementation is hard.”

Chris McChesney shares with us The 4 Disciplines of Execution and how embracing this mindset can help you achieve your goals not only in business, but in life!
