Executive Alignment Workshop

Designed for senior executives, this workshop facilitates alignment on the people-focused vision and strategic direction of change initiatives. The session surfaces hidden misalignment, builds a unified leadership voice, and sets the tone for behavior modeling and communication across the organization.
 
“Senior leaders are nearly 20 percent more likely than people in other roles to believe that their transformation’s goals have been adapted for relevant employees across the organization.”
                    — McKinsey & Company

REAL SOLUTIONS.

Let's get real...

If you struggle to answer these questions, an Executive Alignment Workshop is a great place to start. 

  1. Can each member of our executive team clearly and consistently articulate the vision for this change?
  2. Are we aligned on what success looks like—not just for the business, but for our people?
  3. Do we have shared language and messaging to guide communications across the organization?
  4. Are we sending mixed signals to our teams about the change, either through words or actions?
  5. Have we surfaced and addressed any misalignment that could lead to resistance or confusion?
  6. Do our leaders understand the people-side of the transformation and how it will impact employees?
  7. Are we equipped to lead consistently and credibly throughout the change journey?
  8. Is our executive team prepared to model the behaviors that will drive adoption and trust?
  9. Have we identified the “non-negotiables” and “negotiables” that will guide decision-making?
  10. Are we confident that our leadership tone and actions will accelerate—not hinder—change?
