Larry Bossidy wrote a book The Discipline of Execution, emphasizing that execution comes from people, strategy, and operations.
People - who's on the bus?
Strategy - what plan or blueprint you want people to follow?
Operations - the day-to-day nuts and bolts of how you play.
Here's an excerpt from Brad Stevens' recent post-season reset interview about acquiring a couple of new guys. I expect that Coach Scott Celli would echo these sentiments. Source, John Karalis, Boston Sports Journal
ON SIGNING LUKA GARZA AND JOSH MINOTT
“I think one of the things that we’ve, obviously, we’ve been limited in what tools we can use with where we are right around the second apron. So we’re looking for guys on those contracts that have upside, that are competitors, that are workers, that want to be good, that haven’t hit their peak yet but we’ve seen something in them that we think gives them a chance to be very impactful.
Limited tools - we're not getting free agents for MVB.
Character - guys with upside, competitors, workers, that want to be good
Impactful - impact the culture positively, impact winning
Lagniappe. Quote from "Steal Like an Artist" by Austin Kleon
"The solution is really simple: Figure out what time you can carve out, what time you can steal, and stick to your routine. Do the work every day, no matter what. No holidays, no sick days. Don’t stop. What you’ll probably find is that the corollary to Parkinson’s Law is usually true: Work gets done in the time available."
