Organizational alignment, or total team alignment, is the idea that the entire team from the most entry-level employees to the CEO share a common vision and goal for the company. They work collaboratively to accomplish each goal while maintaining a sense of transparency and accountability across departments.  Working in a siloed organization creates unknown, potentially destructive gaps throughout operations. It also takes away any accountability or transparency between departments.   Team alignment is integral for seamless and effective business processes, both internally and externally (the stakeholder experience). It also helps encourage collaboration which creates happier, more effective teams. Without alignment, each department works independently with its own goals, tasks, and statistical assumptions.   Penterman Consulting Group helps organizations strengthen their communications, establish collaborative objectives, and build a cohesive, collaborative plan to better align your team.
