I view Larry on an equal level Jack Welch, very intelligent and sharp in business!
Excellent reference book if you want to get things done in your business.”
“Great read for those who work or will work in Corp environment. Three core processes are described in detail: people, strategy and operations. A lot of great advice and stories from Bossidy and Ram. Probably the next logical book to read is Jack Welch's Winning.”

What you will learn from this title:
• Why Execution Is Necessary. Leaders simply are not taught the discipline of execution; more time and scholarship are given to strategic thinking and management techniques. Neither mean much to a company, however, if its leader cannot take an idea and make it reality.
• Seven Essential Behaviors. From following through on commitments to rewarding those employees who produce results, if you are serious about execution and leadership, you must exhibit these key behaviors.
• Creating the Framework for Cultural Change. The culture of an organization is the sum of its shared values, beliefs and norms of behavior. Leaders who want to foster an execution-supporting culture must focus on changing the beliefs within their company that influence specific behaviors, since behaviors are what ultimately deliver results.
• The Three Core Processes of Execution. Many organizations treat their people, strategy and operations processes as separate, independent entities, when in fact they are interrelated and must be treated as such in order to ingrain the discipline of execution into the corporation.

“This is one of my top 5 business books. Getting our MBA we talk a lot about concepts, but ultimately nothing much matters if you can't make things happen. This book is a rally for and manual for going out there and executing on those big ideas and strategies. ~ Jk”
