To discuss examples of good strategy execution in a live organization.

Assignment: Write a two paragraph or longer response to the following question – Can you describe a company that demonstrates one of the eight characteristics of good strategy execution (Textbook Figure 10.1, page 200)? Why have you picked this particular company to discuss good strategy execution? What evidence do you have to offer that supports your argument that the company exhibits good strategy execution?

Then, read and post a reply to two of your classmates regarding the analysis of their company. Specific questions to address include: Do you concur with your classmates’ argument that the company exhibits good strategy execution? Why or why not? Does the company exhibit more than one of the eight characteristics of good strategy execution? Perhaps you disagree and would argue that the company in questions does not execute strategy effectively? Why do you believe this? What evidence do you have to bring to bear on the question of the company’s strategy execution?
