Book Abstract
MAIN IDEA
The biggest challenge facing your business at the present time is never what you may think it is at first glance. It’s not the competitive issues which are staring you in the face at the present time at all. Whatever issues you’re facing today, you can guarantee they will be replaced by another set of new and different challenges tomorrow.
Instead, the biggest challenge is always to keep planning and executing well even while you address the challenges of the immediate present. If you can solve this problem, then finding solutions for all the other problems and challenges which may arise in the future will be easier.
Put a different way, suppose you plot your organization’s strategy (deciding what to do) against your level of execution (getting things done). That would create the four quadrants shown at right. The biggest challenge you face is to keep your organization in quadrant 2 at all times. Solve that problem first and foremost, and everything else will naturally fall into its own place.
“Whatever issues an organization faces today, they will be different and bigger tomorrow. Planning and executing, while at the same time managing the unknowns of the real world, is the biggest challenge in business. Overcoming this challenge is what we mean by solving the one problem that will make solving all other problems easier. It builds an organization that is preparing for an ever increasing set of future challenges that are the natural result of overcoming today’s challenges.”

Summary of Six Disciplines ExecutionRevolution(Gary Harpst)
1. Defining Business Excellence
No two companies define excellence quite the same way but to perform well over the long haul, companies must achieve a good balance between strategy and execution. Organizations have to find ways to get positioned in Quadrant 2 and then stay there.
Most companies get into Quadrant 1 at some time or another. This is characterized by the emergence of some kind of competitive advantage which usually leads to a strong growth in initial sales. Customers want what is offered so everyone focuses on getting as many of the products out the door and into the sales channel as possible. If the product is highly successful, it will put pressure on the ability of the company to deliver enough product to meet the demand.
