Creating alignment means creating a sense of agreement or understanding between people, groups, or ideas. When people or groups are aligned, they share a similar vision and are working together to achieve common goals.

This can be a challenge when there are competing interests, but it’s essential for creating a cohesive team. There are many ways to create alignment, but one of the most important is communication. Through open and honest communication, you can help ensure that everyone is on the same page and working towards the same goal.

This can be done through regular check-ins, clear instructions, and keeping lines of communication open.

Be aware when people start taking conversations offline and behind closed doors. There is a time and place for closed doors conversations and knowing when to have them is a requisite skill.
