Vision Vs Execution: Which One Is More Valuable in a Leader?

Lead In 30 Podcast

Which one are you stronger in? Which one does your organization value more? Which one will help you scale your career more? In this episode Lone Rock Leadership cofounder Russ Hill digs into vision vs execution and which one matters most.
• Vision encompasses purpose, key results, first principles, and the "why" behind organizational actions
• Leaders with vision maintain altitude by looking beyond immediate tactics to see the horizon
• Execution problems typically stem from undefined deliverables or lack of accountability
• Most execution issues result from not clearly defining the 2-3 metrics that matter most
• When leaders fail to execute despite feedback and coaching, organizations typically wait too long to make changes
• Great leaders regularly remind teams of the bigger purpose behind their work
• Vision provides the foundation that makes effective execution possible
