  Show 321 - The Strategy Execution Gap: Why the C-suite Can't Afford to Ignore Projects

  Sep 16, 202642 min

  Produced in partnership with the Association for Project Management, this episode explores how organisations turn ambition into outcomes. Debbie West is joined by Professor Adam Boddison OBE, Chief Executive of APM, alongside Ana Reiley, VP and Head of Acceptance UK & Ireland at Visa, Ben Rule, Railway Operations Director at East West Rail, and Dan Caines, Chief Strategy and Transformation Officer at Bupa. Together they examine what the word 'project' really means to senior leaders, why strategy and execution have become inseparable, and how success is increasingly measured through benefits realisation rather than time, cost and quality alone. From knowing when to kill a project to balancing pace with 200-year infrastructure thinking, and the role of storytelling in bringing people with you, this conversation asks what every C-suite leader should rethink about projects.
