Alignment, motivation, engagement or mobilization. It doesn't matter what it's called but if a leadership team cannot get the workforce on board then it doesn't matter what the strategy is as it will be impossible to implement (unless the strategy involves getting rid of the workforce of course)

All of Chinook Solutions' services use inclusive approaches that engage and involve the right people at the right time throughout strategic planning and implementation processes.

Alignment begins with clarity. A clear, shared sense of purpose is the foundation of alignment so our services all start by clearly defining the end result the vision and strategy are intended to achieve. Vision statements and strategy maps are key communucation tools, until these have been clearly defined there simply is no 'same page' to get the workforce onto. When handled properly the very act of developing the vision statement and strategy map serves to align the leadership team. Once the page has been defined and the leaders are "on it," the alignment of the workforce can then be tackled.

Workforce alignment doesn't happen overnight. It arises from a careful, steady expansion of the number of people who understand the clear sense of purpose the aligned leaders now share. This is accomplished as metrics are defined, initiatives are prioritized, plans are cascaded, resources are reallocated and performance is monitored. By linking all such decisions and actions back to the corporate vision and strategy the clear sense of purpose is shared by an ever broadening community.

This is the Clarity, Alignment & Focus building orientation that underpins all Chinook Solutions' Services and which forms the backbone of the Strategic DNA methodology.
