In this special bonus episode of My Favorite Mistake, Mark Graban talks again with Andrea Jones, Principal at AJC and CEO of The Executagility Company.

Andrea was previously featured in Episode 105, and she returns to discuss the release of her new book:
The Executagility Field Guide: How Busy Teams Can Execute Growth Plans.

Andrea shares a new “favorite mistake” involving lost data from a Typeform survey—an honest example of learning the hard way how software design can trip up even experienced business leaders. The good news? She caught the mistake, learned from it, and adjusted her systems to avoid similar issues in the future.

We also dive into the four pillars of the Executagility model:

Alignment – Are we clear on the goals and priorities?
Available Time – Do our people realistically have capacity to execute?
Competence – Do we have the right skills in-house or need help?
Structure – Do we have a repeatable process to keep projects on track?

Andrea explains how she applied her own framework to the writing and launch of her book—and how it’s helping mid-sized businesses get growth initiatives done without burning out their teams.

"You can’t execute growth if your team is already stretched thin trying to handle today’s work."

"Just because someone’s capable in their current role doesn’t mean they can drive transformation alone. That’s why the glue person—the project leader—is essential."
