What is Alignment?
- Alignment is a relationship to decisions.
- It's an approach to decisions that leads you to own decisions as if they were yours.
- Alignment is the most powerful relationship you can have to a decision.
- Alignment is a choice.
- It's also a commitment to have a decision work.
- If you're aligned, then you both own the decision like it's yours and you're committed to making the decision work.
- Also, alignment is not a one-time thing. It must be sustained over time. It's an ongoing commitment, an attitude, a state of mind.
