It is the Senior Executive Team that provides direction and leadership for the entire organization.

It is the Senior Team that creates the overall culture in the organization. the climate that determines how people feel about working for your organization.

The way people feel about working for your organization has a major impact on their level of engagement, the degree to which they trust management, and ultimately on your customer satisfaction, ability to retain talent, productivity and profitability.

It is vital then, that the Senior Team is absolutely clear, and in full agreement with your organization's Purpose, Values and Vision, and what kind of culture you need to achieve that Vision.

In a nutshell, the primary responsibility of the Senior Team is to create the conditions for success... to create a work environment where all employees can perform at their best, and willingly be accountable for their results.

Unfortunately, many Senior Teams do not understand that culture is their responsibility. We know that because so many organizations have a culture that results in disengaged employees who lack trust in their management... employees who avoid being personally responsible.

According to research by The Gallup Organization, over 70% of the American workforce is Not-Engaged or Actively Disengaged. These employees come to work switched off, and sometimes actively working against their organization. (See our Online Assessments page to find out more on the levels of engagement in your organization.)

Our Senior Team Alignment Process addresses this critical need by providing senior teams with a process for agreeing on and implementing a plan for creating an organizational culture that will deliver the optimum business results.

We use a measurement tool to identify the degree to which the team is in alignment prior to commencing the process... the Team Alignment Questionnaire (TAQ). This tool measures the degree to which team members are clear on, and in agreement with the organization's Purpose, Values and Vision.

The Team Alignment Questionnaire provides a benchmark of where the team is at a given point in time. As a result, we know what needs to be worked on, what needs to be clarified, and where agreement is needed, in order for the team to commit to creating a High Performance Culture.
