Why Boardroom Strategy Fails: The Action Gap™

From Commercial Intent to Consistent Field Action

Unpacked by RISE series artwork

The commercial plan is clear. But is it changing what happens in the field?

In Episode 01 of RISE Unpacked, we explore why sound commercial plans stall before they become consistent field action. Using RISE’s five-stage Action Gap™ framework—Strategy, Translation, Enablement, Execution and Feedback—we examine the questions leaders can ask to find where the chain breaks.

In this episode, we explore:

  • How commercial strategy connects to daily field action
  • Why translating intent into clear choices matters
  • The role of enablement in supporting execution
  • How execution connects plans to customer interactions
  • Why feedback completes the five-stage operating loop

The central takeaway: Closing the Action Gap™ means connecting commercial intent to repeatable field action through Strategy, Translation, Enablement, Execution and Feedback.
