Two-thirds of executives say that their organizations don’t have the capabilities to support their strategies, with 80% admitting that their overall strategy is not well understood, even within their own organization. The first question, of course, is why is this is happening? The second obvious question is: How to fix it? That’s at the heart of a new book, “ Strategy: How Winning Companies Close the Strategy-to-Execution Gap ” by Paul Leinwand , Cesare Mainardi and Art Kleiner.

Question: “Our admin team is compiling one list each month of 10 tips to get better at a certain skill. We simply post these on our walls at work to always keep us in learning mode. This month’s list is about time management. For the first time, we’re not filling up a list very quickly—we keep rejecting ideas because so many of them haven’t really helped us that much in the past.

Unfortunately, as a startup or a small business, you will most probably be at the bottom of the food chain. Still, this is the way it goes and this lack in size can be compensated for quite easily. All you have to do is find some cost-effective ways to utilize your productivity and that of your employees.

Not all hours in the day are created equal. When you first wake up—especially if you’re a night owl—you’re probably a bit groggy (and desperately in need of coffee). Or maybe you’re an early riser, so for you it’s the hour or two you spend watching TV before bed. You just know your brain is tired, so it’s not a good time to make any difficult decisions or to dive into any important work.

by It's time to rehabilitate the much-maligned junk drawer. In the unlikely event that you don't have one, this is a drawer, usually in the kitchen, that acts as a catch-all for small items and pieces of other items that you don't have time to put away or don't know where to put. People are often embarrassed to admit that they have junk drawers, but I say using a drawer for this purpose is a heck of a lot better than letting those doohickeys clutter up the rest of the house.
