Whether they are called COO, General Manager, VP, Operations, or Integrator the success of an organization lies not only in the strengths of the person making it happen, but in strengths of the person making it work. There is nothing more powerful than an entrepreneurial minded leader working closely with their implementor to make their ideas come to life.
Organizations benefit from their Visionary’s right-brain creativity. This is what launched the organization in the early years and propels it in the future. However, this can only be achieved when the Visionary is not sucked into the day-to-day operations. The ongoing tactical activities require left-brain focus and does not come naturally to most entrepreneurs but falls in the sweet spot for their implementor cohorts.
