Published: Wednesday, May 23, 2012 - 13:49 (CRC Press: Boca Raton, FL) -- Many organizations develop strategic plans that gather dust on bookshelves. Driving Strategy to Execution Using Lean Six Sigma: A Framework for Creating High Performance Organizations, by Gerhard Plenert and Tom Cluley (CRC Press, 2012) details how to link strategy deployment into the fabric of day-to-day operations. View abstracts of all chapters here. Bolstered by real-world examples of successful strategy execution, the book provides: The framework provides a proven methodology that takes a systems approach to creating high performance. It presents the core process of strategy development and strategy alignment and deployment (SA&D) with the governing process of driving the right metrics through a balanced scorecard approach focused on the organization’s value stream. It then combines this with the enabling process of change management and the creation of a culture of problem solving, waste elimination, and internal discipline to standard work. Anyone can write a book on the procedures behind “strategy” without understanding the key drivers that give a strategy excitement, commitment, and fire. Here, Gerhard Plenert and Tom Cluley do more than that. First, they examine how to make a strategy meaningful and powerful. Then they underline the critical piece to strategy development—the execution piece—which takes the glossy strategy brochure off the shelf and makes a usable and executable plan. The book focuses on how to build great strategies and includes examples of what makes them great. It demonstrates how a well-developed strategy generates excitement within an organization, offering you the tools to navigate and design a workable and achievable plan for success for your organization.
