The COO's vision: Execution starts with clarity
Notas do episódio
Today’s COOs are tasked with steering their organizations through geopolitical volatility, rapid advances in AI and increasingly complex global value chains. Through it all, a clear a North Star vision matters more than ever. But a vision that lives on a slide deck rarely transitions to the factory floor seamlessly. For the vision to hold, it has to be owned by the leadership team, translated for every audience, and defended when tough choices need to be made.
In this episode, host Daphne Luchtenberg is joined by Dapo Ajayi, former vice president, Innovative Medicine Supply Chain at Johnson & Johnson, and Tony Gambell, a leader in McKinsey’s Operations Practice and its COO Excellence Initiative. They explore how COOs can co-create a vision with their leadership teams, carry it across functions and down to the front line, and stand behind it when trade-offs and setbacks put it to the test.
