Strategy is easy to agree on. Execution is where things break. Adam Josephs has spent more than two decades stepping into high-stakes environments where delivery matters, post-merger integrations, AI transformations, and critical growth initiatives, and making execution predictable. Adam is the creator of Risk Up Front®, a disciplined execution framework adopted by organizations like Goldman Sachs, Lam Research, and NeoPhotonics, and now taught at Dartmouth Engineering. His work focuses on engineering clarity, surfacing risk early, and installing operating rhythms that help teams move faster without burning out.

In this episode, we’ll explore why most execution failures are avoidable, how leaders miss risk signals until it’s too late, and what consulting firm owners can learn from enterprise-grade execution systems to improve delivery, credibility, and growth.
