Publisher's Summary

The guide to shortening your execution cycle down from one year to 12 weeks

Most organizations and individuals work in the context of annual goals and plans; a 12-month execution cycle. Instead, The 12 Week Year avoids the pitfalls and low productivity of annualized thinking. This book redefines your "year" to be 12 weeks long. In 12 weeks, there just isn't enough time to get complacent, and urgency increases and intensifies. The 12 Week Year creates focus and clarity on what matters most and a sense of urgency to do it now. In the end more of the important stuff gets done and the impact on results is profound.

  • Explains how to leverage the power of a 12-week year to drive improved results in any area of your life
  • Offers a how-to book for both individuals and organizations seeking to improve their execution effectiveness
  • Authors are leading experts on execution and implementation

Turn your organization's idea of a year on its head, and speed your journey to success.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Really great narration.

Narration made book enjoyable and easy to finish. Felt the organization of the book could have been a bit better but the information it contained is very valuable none the less. Looking forward to implementing the info.

This book is like steroids for your business.

Right from the beginning of the book I was engaged and started implementing the mindset and tools taught. I'm going to listen to this audible again to collect more tools and principles I missed the first time around. To your success.

Brilliant business resource

A brilliant resource for anyone that wants results.

After having implemented this system and I believe it will take you to a whole new level both in business and personal to achieve whatever you set out to do in life! Thankyou to the writers.

Wish there was better focus on 12 week year specific stuff

The whole concept is that assigning goals annually is arbitrary and you can achieve more with shorter goal cycles. There are a lot of good tips on how to do this, however the books also contains a lot of general self-help productivity stuff that could be cut to really make the 12 week year specific content central. For example there’s a whole chapter on the importance of consistency, okay I know that, but that’s not specific to the 12 week year. Overall great info, but probably could have cut 75% of it to make the valuable 25% shine.
