Introduction

In today’s dynamic and demanding markets, organizations that wants to lead and achieve growth that far exceeds what their competition is planning for as well as what they have been used to in the past, cannot afford to be just a good organization, but rather a Great Organization.

Great Organizations need to adopt aggressive, well-balanced and coordinated strategies to achieve their desired vision.

Those strategies need to identify attainable and measurable goals, for which the organization can assure that their strategies will be deployed as planned.

What this means?
Organizations who want to become Great Organizations need to shift their strategy from “Running the Business” to “Growing the Business”.

This would require those organizations to initiate, strategically align, prioritize, plan and successfully deliver
hundreds of projects to achieve their desired vision.

Those will include strategy, operational, new-product, new-services and capital investment projects.

Projects that will require individuals from the different functional divisions to be set accountable for delivering their scope as well as manage resources, labor and non-labor, collaborate with other team members, and communicate with external and internal stakeholders.
