"Leading for execution is not about micromanaging, or being 'hands on' or disempowering people. Rather, it's about active involvement--doing the things leaders should be doing in the first place."

These words from famed author and CEO Larry Bossidy remind us that execution takes work, often hard and detailed work.

It also lets us know that good leaders know how to get things done. They are always actively involved and meet their commitments to their people. They experience strategic success year after year because they have leaders and teams that know how to "execute."

They are always productive.

Think of execution as the discipline required to manage your business's day-to-day performance and functionality while also improving, learning, and growing your company's capabilities.

Both of which are critical to any organization's long-term success and viability.  Source: https://www.linkedin.com/in/waynenelsen/
