Establish Executive Team Operating Rhythms
Strategy fails when the executive team's operating mechanics are weak. Meetings without decision rights waste senior time, offsites without follow-through become theater, and conflict without norms either disappears underground or turns personal. The CEO who builds clear operating rhythms gives the team the infrastructure to make decisions, surface disagreement, and improve the way it works.
