Even the strongest strategy can stall when the human system underneath it is misaligned. In this BizBlend episode, host Yusuf speaks with Sriram Mangudi about why execution breaks down when leaders over-invest in planning but underinvest in leadership readiness.

This conversation is for founders, executives, operators, and investors who feel their plan is solid but progress feels slow, messy, or stuck. You’ll learn how leadership clarity, stakeholder alignment, and operating rhythms can turn strategy into real enterprise value, especially during high-pressure moments like M&A and rapid growth.

Sriram Mangudi works at the intersection of strategy, leadership, and human capital risk. He supports investors and leadership teams in aligning talent, culture, and people systems so strategy translates into enterprise value.

• Strategy communication to investors is not the same as internal leadership alignment

• Leadership gaps show up most clearly during stress, pivots, and transformation

• In M&A, the first 3–6 months depend heavily on putting the right leaders in place

• Start with basics: clear org chart, defined ownership, and role accountability

• Strong governance rhythms and enterprise mindset help teams recover from setbacks

• If messaging is not landing, change how you communicate and influence expectations
