90% of companies fail to execute their strategy: So, what makes the remaining 10% successful? Let me introduce you to a useful framework: The Strategy Pyramid. Shared by Wendy McGuiness in 2011, this framework outlines 9 critical elements for successful strategy and execution. These elements are divided into 3 key categories: Purpose, Strategy, and Execution. A) Purpose 1. Mission: Clarifies your company's core reason for existence. What’s your "why"? 2. Values: Defines the principles and beliefs that guide decisions and shape company culture. 3. Vision: Paints a picture of the future you’re striving for. Where do you see your company in the years to come? B) Strategy 4. Strategic Intent: Sets clear goals and objectives, laying out the desired outcomes and the path to achieve them. 5. Drivers: Identifies the key factors that will drive success: Whether it's market expansion, innovation, cost-efficiency, or customer satisfaction. 6. Enablers: Outlines the tools, resources, and capabilities needed to drive the strategy, like technology, talent, and capital. C) Execution 7. Targets and Initiatives: Defines clear actions and measurable targets to ensure progress and alignment with strategy. 8. Performance Indicators: Sets KPIs to track progress and assess the impact of your strategy. 9. Strategy Map: Offers a visual layout of the strategy to align the entire organization and provide clarity. This framework helps leaders: A) Clarify the organization’s purpose B) Create a focused, actionable strategy C) Execute with precision Each of these pillars is essential - neglecting one could derail the entire strategy. To succeed, you need clarity on what exactly you’re executing. P.S. Are you putting enough focus on your strategy? ?? Repost so your network succeeds in strategy execution. ---- ??

?? ?????? ?????????????? ?????????????? ?????????? ???????? Are you interested in VC? I've created this summary of a typical Fund structure. VC Funds are structured as Limited Partnerships with General Partners and Limited Partners. The Investors, which are also called Limited Partnes (LPs) provide the capital for the fund. They are usually public pension funds, corporate pension funds, insurance companies, high net-worth individuals, family offices, endowments, foundations, fund-of-funds, sovereign wealth funds, among others. The VC Firms or General Partners (GP) are responsible of the management ofthe Fund. They are also in charge of convincing LPs to commit capital in exchange for a promised return. GPs usually follow the 2-20 "Rule". The remuneration earned by GPs takes the form of management fees and carried interest. A GP normally takes 2% as management fee per year. Further, GPs can earn a carried interest ("carry") of around 20% of the return generated for the LPs, if and only if, their returns exceed LPs demands, this would be between 8-12%.

???????? ??% ???? ?????????? ?????????? ???????????? ?????????????? ??????????????—??????? The difference lies in the details founders often overlook. Sequoia Capital’s legendary pitch deck template outlines the must-have slides that make investors say “yes”: 1?? ??????????????: Define your company’s mission with clarity. 2?? ??????????????: Address the issue your customers face with insight. 3?? ????????????????: Show your product as the game-changing answer. 4?? ?????? ??????: Prove the timing is right. 5?? ???????????? ????????: Demonstrate your TAM, SAM, and SOM potential. 6?? ??????????????????????: Highlight your edge over competitors. 7?? ??????????????: Showcase its brilliance and roadmap. 8?? ???????????????? ??????????: Make your revenue model compelling. 9?? ????????: Present the people building your vision. This isn’t just about data or charts—it’s about crafting a narrative that resonates with investors. As Chris Tottman emphasizes, “Every great pitch deck connects a bold vision with a clear path forward. Investors don’t just want numbers—they want to see your story.” Start with why. End with how.

Friendly reminder: There are GREAT businesses that are not venture backable. What does VC-backable even mean? - Ability to scale to $100M revenue in 7-10 years - High margins (more tech, less services) - Capital efficient (doesn't require constant capital injections to run) - Large TAM ($1B+) - High industry multiples (7-10x rev) Most businesses do not meet this criteria, which makes VC investment hard. To understand this, you should understand that VCs #1 goal is return ALL + MORE money back to LPs in 7-10 years. The most probable way to do this is by investing in businesses that meet the above criteria. For a more granular view on how VCs model out exit math and decide whether a startup is a good investment, check out the below resources. ???????????????????? ?? ???? ????????????????????. ?????? ???????????????? ???????????????????? ???? ?? ???? ???????? ??????????: https://lnkd.in/gjhyd7fw ???? ???????? ?????????? ????????????????:?https://lnkd.in/gUhVyTEx
