Alignment is key to many of the things we do at work and in life. Knowing who and what to be aligned with is critically important.
· Alignment is important
· To being in synch with colleagues and friends.
· Superior-subordinate alignment is very important
· When planning and setting organizational objectives.
· It’s about being on the same page in the work/life playbook.
In general, this is true. But I think it’s most important when setting objectives at work. Whether it relates to a specific project or initiative, your organizational and departmental performance, or other overall objectives, you, and your colleagues will benefit from this level of agreement. This requires open discussion, clear communication, a lot of listening, and specific agreements about what you decide. This is called superior-subordinate alignment and it’s important to a you and your team’s overall success. With these agreements, you have a roadmap from which to set, track, and measure performance – that’s efficient and effective. You have the basis for on-going coaching discussions, less judgmental or defensive and more factual and focused. In keeping with your purpose and mission. Think of this as a playbook, complete with clear diagrams, roles, responsibilities, and results, all the things you and your workmates need to be effective. It all starts with alignment. Be in synch with others today.
