Senior leadership teams recognize that in order to move the strategy forward, they need to make it come to life across the organization, regardless of level of responsibility. This is especially important as research shows that more and more, talent is purpose-driven. While most are aware that communicating the strategy is key, how the strategy is used in daily interactions is also critical. 

Examples will be used to illustrate everyday opportunities for successfully making the strategy come to life. Working in small groups, you’ll discuss thought-provoking questions and share your experiences with each other. 

Key Takeaways:

• Practical ways to help build strategic alignment throughout your organization
• How strategic alignment can support employees feeling part of and responsible for the organization’s success
• Examples of how employees can use the strategy to guide their priorities
