Execution is a discipline...

Do you have a culture of execution?

*Are you setting the right goals? (you're thinking...does this really need to be asked? The answer is yes.  What you focus on your outcomes will be)

*Getting the strategy right.. and communicting it to all employees. Everyone should know what the strategy is and how they contribute to making it happen!

*What rewards are in place for employees who hit or exceed the target goals?

*Do you have a set of norms and values?  Do your employees know what they are?  Are they measured at performance management?

*In order to reward for execution, an organization first needs to measure performance.  People need targets ~ and stretch goals ~ in order to be able to quantify their performance and determine whether the division or unit is executing at the desired performance level.

It's always been interesting to go into a business and find none of these things really being executed!  If you want results focus on things that matter!!!
