Flawless Execution (Review and Analysis of Murphy's Book)
()
About this ebook
This complete summary of the ideas from James Murphy's book "Flawless Execution" describes flawless execution as “a trainable, learnable repeatable process – bred in military aviation – that improves execution.” This summary shows that there is one thing military organisations do well which general business practice has not yet picked up on. Military organisations carry out extensive briefings before attempting to act and then have systematic debriefs afterwards to figure out what went well and what did not for next time. Briefing and debriefing are areas many businesses are weak at. Flawless execution is all about generating predictable results time and again.
Added-value of this summary:
• Save time
• Understand the key concepts
• Increase your business knowledge
To learn more, read "Flawless Execution" and you will realise that your business can take a lesson from the US military's fighter pilots.

Book Abstract
MAIN IDEA
Irrespective of whether or not you believe military strategies apply in business, there is one thing military organizations do well which general business practice has not yet picked up on. Military organizations carry out extensive briefings before attempting to act and then have systematic debriefs afterwards to figure out what went well and what did not for next time. In this way, the people at the frontlines pass on practical information which can be used to enable subsequent teams attempting the same task to do them better, and ultimately flawlessly. Briefing and debriefing are areas many businesses are weak at and this is often the reason know-how is lost when people leave the organization.
Flawless execution is all about generating predictable results time and again. It requires three elements to be in place:
Flawless execution was developed in one of the most unforgiving laboratories in the world – the military jet fighter. In the aftermath of accidents, mistakes, and miscalculations that, since the 1940s, have cost uncountable aircrews their lives, Flawless Execution has become the theme in our book of lessons learned. Born of necessity; due to the international conflicts that put our men (and now our women) into harm’s way, the United States military long ago came to grips with the need to train people how to execute flawlessly. Nowhere was it accomplished with more fervor, with more thought or study, or with a more fanatical dedication to institutionalizing the results than in the training of America’s fighter pilots. Flawless Execution is a trainable, learnable repeatable process – bred in military aviation – that improves execution.
