Are you ready to become an Alignment Leader?
Successful organization alignment efforts are the result of leaders embracing the role of Alignment Leader. All leaders have a responsibility to ensure their organization is aligned and capable of winning in the marketplace. Some leaders instinctively know how to align their organization for success.
