A great book is "Strategy and the Fat Smoker". It's written by a consultant but points out an obvious point: the quality of the strategy itself is not nearly as impactful as the ability to execute. The author compares this to being a fat smoker who won't change their habits - knowing the right strategy is insufficient.
