High Performing Leadership Teams Act and Speak as One Team
They are
committed to one plan and one way of working. They purposefully and
consistently align a company’s strategy, culture, and talent so that
everyone and everything is moving in the same direction for the same
reasons. And being on one team with one plan pays dividends.
We know
from our organizational alignment
research that highly aligned companies grow revenue 58% faster,
are 72% more profitable and outperform unaligned companies in terms of:
·
Customer Retention
2.23-to-1
·
Customer
Satisfaction 3.2-to-1
·
Leadership
Effectiveness 8.71-to-1
·
Employee
Engagement 16.8-to-1
When
leaders operate as a unified team toward shared goals, organizations
experience stronger strategy execution, greater employee
engagement, and more loyal customers.
Conversely,
high levels of leadership misalignment create
organizational churn and dysfunction: teams drift, messages are mixed,
priorities clash, agendas diverge, resources are misappropriated,
performance declines, and employees suffer.
The
ability of leaders to function as “one team with one plan” is a hallmark
of high-performing leadership
teams.
