Most complex organizations are well structured to deal with projects that affect the traditional business perimeter. Despite this, 50% of strategic initiatives fail, and the ca uses are predominantly internal. What can be done? Business leaders have the opportunity to subvert this achievement and achieve their strategic goals, adopting both a visionary and operational mindset. A common mistake of organizations is to impute failure on people, who do not execute the strategy in the correct way. But often the area of execution is underestimated: we can not think of introducing new goals and succeed, if we do not have a clear vision and management of the necessary resources, identifying which internal capacities are really important to carry out the mission.
