About this book

Misaligned companies, like cars out of alignment, can develop serious problems if not corrected quickly. They are hard to steer and don't respond well to changes in direction. This groundbreaking book shows you how to get - and keep - all the vital elements of your organization aligned and headed in the same direction at the same time. As pioneers of the alignment concept, the authors have developed this unique approach based on their work with leading companies throughout the world. The Power of Alignment is packed with war stories and the firsthand perspectives of industry leaders. In essence, alignment links the five key elements of an organization - people, process, customers, business strategies, and, of course, leadership - to obtain breakthrough results, chief among them, sustained growth and profit, loyal customers, and a high-performing work force.
