Are we aligned?

12/3/2021

Colleagues,

If you’ve been following along and reflecting, then today is the payoff!
 
At the bottom of this email is a simple rubric. You can use your reflections to approximate the degree of alignment in your organization.
 
Interpreting Results:
Use the scoring guide below to generate a score between 5-15. A score above 12 indicates high alignment. A score of 10-12 suggests average alignment. A score of 7-10 signals that there are significant issues. A score below 6 reveals that something is drastically wrong.
 
While aligning an organization is the core function of leadership, understanding the nature of the misalignment can be complex. Here are some possible next steps:
  1. If you shared this exercise with your colleagues, work with them to identify key problems by discussing the responses as a group. Capture thoughts, opinions, and ideas.
  2. Review materials and correspondence for evidence of the purpose. Ideally, these materials and communications should include purpose-specific language and focus on things that move the organization towards its purpose.
  3. Identify all major projects and initiatives and evaluate the degree to which they align with the purpose of the organization.
  4. Consider working with someone outside of the organization to help provide perspective. 
 
Any time I do something a bit different, it helps to hear whether it was something that I should repeat again. If this week’s exercise was valuable, or if it was ineffective, please let me know.

Cheers! 

​Frederick
