Execute, what an interesting word! It means to put a plan, order, or course of action into effect. It is absolutely an easy word to look for using the Google search box, but according to the reading "A message to Garcia", the ability to execute the rarest Skill of All. This was the first time that I read that description.
When I read this text I felt inspired to try this with the team I manage at my work. Results were immediately evident, "how do you want me exactly to do it?", "What is the best time to do this?", "Once I am done with that, what do you want me to do?". Believe it or not, those were some of the "questions" I got after delegating a specific task. I just laughed internally. That is a natural behavior in most of us.
Talking about leadership let me share what the article says about making a difference, a characteristic of a natural leader, it says, "Woody Allen said that 90% of life is “just showing up.” If so, the most important 10% of life is execution." My own experience in this context has taught me that the less you ask the more you learn. That is an absolute truth.
