Ryan Castle sits down with Mike Ashby, co-founder of Level 10 Leaders and newly published Forbes contributor, to make the case that most businesses don't have a strategy problem. They have a consistency problem. Drawing on 25+ years in organisational development, Mike argues that the real gap isn't strategy or innovation. It's the daily failure to do the vital few things that actually move the needle.

Mike unpacks why "surprise and delight" is a costly distraction, why dashboards stay green until they suddenly don't, and what the execution habit really looks like at the manager level. If your quarterly goals are always on track for 11 weeks and then mysteriously aren't, this episode will show you exactly why, and what to do about it.
