Organizations must ensure that all of their systems and practices support the same overall objective. Without this alignment, one part of the organization’s efforts may nullify the efforts of another part of the organization.

In the change game, nothing says “I’m on board” better than ensuring you are properly aligned with the new goals and strategies of the organization.
