70% of business initiatives fail to realize their intended business results. Why is it that organizations so often fail in the execution of well-formulated, viable strategies? This question is a fundamental challenge facing executives today. This poor track record of initiative success demands a fresh perspective. GP Strategies’ Clarity Framework has evolved over the past 20 years and presents a proven approach to achieve initiative success. The framework focuses on the critical work that must be performed, the explicit processes required, and the readiness of the people within the organization to perform this work. Having a framework does not suggest the journey will be easy. However, it does provide a clear and deliberate path to achieve the success that eludes most strategic initiatives.
