He breaks down the three key components of organizational health: Alignment, Execution, and Renewal, and their significance in achieving both short and long-term business goals.

Grapple with the practical complexities of balancing 37 different management practices and how the four 'recipes' can streamline your focus: Leadership Factory, Market Shaper, Continuous Improvement Engine, and Talent/Knowledge Core.

With real-world examples, Grant also unpacks the implications of a clear management philosophy and the periodic reevaluation of your organization's leadership approach.
