FORGE: The CEO Operating System
Audio-liburu honi buruz
The company runs out of your head. That is the problem.
Decisions queue outside one door. Good people spend long weeks on work nobody selected. The Board repeats its question every quarter, and the number sits still. Working harder will not fix it. Working harder is how it started.
FORGE is the operating system Bill Canady installs to end that — five disciplines, in order, in about a hundred days:
Focus. Read the business through your own week, and find where you are the bottleneck.
Objective. Leave one meeting with one number the Board and the team both own.
Roadmap. Put the strategy on one page, and decide what stops.
Govern. Build the organization the strategy needs, and name the Prophet who will run it.
Execute. Hand the cadence to the Prophet, and guard against the quiet slide back in Year 2.
Every step is proved on one company, followed from Day Zero to its first monthly review, with the dates and the numbers shown.
The book behind FORGE, the CEO operating program of The 80/20 Institute. Your team does the work in FORGE · The Field Guide.
This audiobook is narrated using a digitally recreated version of Bill Canady’s voice.
Includes the 34-page visual companion PDF for figures and reference tables. The paid fillable Field Guide is sold separately.
