FranklinCovey brings the world's top trainers to the Middle East

Discussing this topic will be Lars Jepsen, Execution Practice Leader and Partner, from FranklinCovey Denmark on the 3rd of December at The Knowledge Café in The WestIn Mina Seyahi.

"Seventy percent of strategic failures are due to poor execution of leadership. It's rarely for lack of smarts or vision."

A hefty statement proclaimed by Ram Charan, official author of What The CEO Wants You To Know and Execution: The Discipline of Getting Things Done. Behind such a claim, there stands good reason for its unvarnished and cutting occurrence in today's business world. Organizations have come to discover the importance of not only setting their strategy but equally of executing on its strategy and doing so in a successful way; the old adage of "Action speaks louder than words" which translates in organizational terms to "Correct execution to the right strategy is profitable''

Lars has specialized in Strategy Execution, Leadership, Personal Planning and Productivity and has worked for international organizations such as the United Nations and The World Bank.
