"To me, ideas are worth nothing unless executed. Execution is worth millions" Steve Jobs. Companies spend a great effort to define a solid strategy but too often lack to put the necessary resources in place for the their implementation. Only a strong operational execution will leverage your performance and deliver the expected results. Companies must turn great strategic plans into great performance on the field.At The Retail Connection, we help companies to turn their strategic plans into operational activities, focus on their implementation, keep track of progress, ensure the follow up and report value drivers to the executive team. With their execution skills and knowledge, our implementation professionals commit themselves to deliver the expected performance. Having external support on board for at least one day a week allows the management team to have an unbiased view on performance, to discuss openly hurdles and roadblocks but more importantly to keep the necessarily focus on the project without jeopardizing the running operations.
