Today’s book: The 4 Disciplines of Execution by Chris McChesney, Sean Covey, and Jim Huling—a powerful system to help individuals and teams close the gap between what they want to achieve and what they actually get done.
Here’s your 1-minute summary:
- Discipline 1: Focus on the Wildly Important. Don’t try to do everything. Identify the one goal that will make the biggest impact.
- Discipline 2: Act on the Lead Measures. Track actions that drive results—not just outcomes.
- Discipline 3: Keep a Compelling Scorecard. What’s measured gets managed. Make progress visible and motivating.
- Discipline 4: Create a Cadence of Accountability. Meet regularly. Own commitments. Celebrate wins and course-correct fast.
- Execution is a habit. Success doesn’t come from ideas—it comes from daily, disciplined follow-through.
Strategy is only potential. Execution is power. What’s your Wildly Important Goal—and what’s one lead measure you’ll hit today?
