Two-thirds of business and corporate strategies fail not due to poor strategy or flawed logic but poor execution. However smart a new strategy may be, it takes informed managers and strong leadership to make it a successful one.

Our guiding framework involves applying principles of social organization to mobilize the necessary resources to pursue a given strategy.
