How to lead organizations to be fit for purpose and high performing
Why do some businesses thrive while many more struggle and fail? A key reason is strategic alignment. This is the careful arrangement of the various elements of an enterprise – from its business strategy to how it is organized – to best support the fulfillment of its long-term purpose. The best-aligned enterprises are the best performing, all other things being equal.
Most executives recognize that their enterprises should be managed in this aligned way. Still, they lack a robust system of thought to execute strategic alignment and realize its full benefits. There are thousands of organizations globally that are operating below their potential simply because they are not aligned. But we can learn the critical insights, frameworks, and examples necessary for leaders to address this gap in capability and improve performance.

How to overcome business disruption and improve performance
The COVID-19 global pandemic turned many aspects of business on their head – but why did some companies thrive while many others struggled? In our new age of disruption, a key reason is the failure by many leaders to realign all of the moving parts of their enterprise to reflect the new realities of their changing business environment. From their business strategies to how they are organized to best support their enduring purpose, thousands of enterprises worldwide are operating below their potential simply because they’re poorly aligned or have failed to realign in response to political, economic, social, technological, legal, and environmental threats and opportunities.
Strategic alignment and realignment is a leadership process to overcome disruption and secure high performance on a sustainable basis. Once mastered, strategic realignment is an effective way of turning adversity into an advantage, regardless of sector. Driven by research and practical application, these insights offer a thought-provoking and compelling message and an effective and practical toolkit to help leaders everywhere overcome disruption and improve enterprise performance.
