How to Identify a Strategy Execution Gap in Your Organization

Most strategies look inspiring in presentations but rarely shape the daily work of product teams.

The result? Misalignment, wasted resources, and stalled innovation.
This is the strategy execution gap — one of the biggest challenges CEOs worry about today.

Here’s a quick test:
Ask people on the front line, “Do you see how your work contributes to the company’s strategy?”

If the answers are uncertain, inconsistent, or framed as purely tactical, the gap is alive and well.

Want to go further? We created a free survey template you can run with your team. It only takes a few minutes to set up and helps reveal how pervasive the problem really is.

How it works:
1. Open the link and click “Use this template” (top right).
2. Create a free Tally account (if you don’t already have one).
3. Publish the survey and share it with your colleagues.

The results are yours alone. We don’t collect or see your data.

This survey is part of our work on Analyzing Your Strategy Execution Gap, a framework for uncovering where strategies fail in execution and what can be done about it.
