303: Ron Price — Strategic Execution
This week’s episode is all about strategy! For some leaders, planning ahead can come seamlessly, for others, not so much. You might have run into a problem where you’ve planned a cohesive strategy, but when it comes to the execution, it doesn’t quite turn out the way you’ve envisioned. Our guest shares how you can optimize your strategy for maximum impact.
Ron Price is the President and Founder of Price Associates, a global leadership performance firm. He is an internationally recognized Business Advisor, Executive Coach, Speaker, and Author. He is also the author of the new book, Optimizing Strategy For Results.
Ron comes from an entrepreneurial family. His father became an entrepreneur because he wanted to live out his values. There were a lot of valuable lessons his father had instilled into Ron and it paved a way for him within his business and executive career.
Despite Ron’s diverse career over the last 40 years, he can boil it down to two critical pieces for his success: talent and strategy. Talent plays a big role in the successful execution of a strategy.
However, Ron has always had a love/hate relationship with strategy, and he knows he’s not the only one. He has seen it time and time again that companies typically do parts of strategy really well, but other pieces (like execution) can fall through the cracks. His latest book aims to solve this problem.
