Continually ask the right questions, advises Harvard Business School professor Robert Simons. By posing these provocative questions, you identify critical gaps in your strategy execution processes, focus on the most important choices you must make, and understand what's at stake in each one...These questions force you to reexamine the unspoken assumptions underlying your strategy and analyze how it's implemented through your business processes and structures.
