Author Patty Azzarello draws on over twenty-five years of international business management experience to identify the chronic challenges that keep organizations from decisively executing strategy, and to give you a practical game plan for breaking through.

At the heart of every execution problem is the fact that there simply are not enough people doing what the business needs.
