Rapid Alignment is a proven process that has been helping organizations, leaders and their teams succeed in times of transformational change for over 20 years.

Core Principles for Transforming Your BUSINESS

1

CURRENT ORGANIZATION REALITY

An in-depth and objective organization diagnosis is the essential first step in building a solid foundation for Leadership and Organization Alignment. The Senior Leadership Team needs to understand and acknowledge their current organization reality before they can plan how best to move forward to their preferred future. Our diagnosis provides that reality.

2

PREFERRED FUTURE

Our fundamental Rapid Alignment principle is that sustainable success and resilience in an increasing complex and disruptive world is found within the organization. We collaborate with the executive team and senior leadership to define and create their preferred future—the future state of the business and organization when their strategy is fully implemented. People commit to the future they help create!

BRAND REPUTATION

In today’s business environment ‘brand is everything’. Creating an internal business brand that everyone can identify with provides focus and aspiration. Rapid Alignment facilitates that internal brand discussion and integrates brand attributes into the strategic and performance priorities that align all leaders on achieving your organization’s preferred future.

Core Principles for Transforming Your ORGANIZATION

1

MITIGATE RESISTANCE TO CHANGE

Successful change can only be accomplished when dissatisfaction with the Current State combines with a compelling vision of the Future and clarity of First Steps for Change are greater than individual and organizational Resistance to Change. Our Rapid Alignment process quickly identifies and helps mitigate individual and institutional barriers to change as a critical step on the path to successful change.

2

DEPERSONALIZE CONFLICT

Dynamic change inevitably creates conflict between the current and future state. In some cases, a leader’s avoidance of conflict to maintain a false sense of harmony and alignment actually stifles the creative innovation necessary for the organization to thrive, or even survive. Rapid Alignment provides a framework and language to depersonalize conflict between competing perspectives which allows for open expression of the constructive ‘creative tension’ that drives innovation. The simultaneous work on strategic self-awareness of each leader and Rapid Alignment team facilitation enables this creative tension to drive change in a transparent and supportive team and organization environment.

3

COLLABORATIVE CULTURE

Creating a collaborative culture is essential to sustain alignment and change momentum into the future. In the Rapid Alignment process increasing trust between all leadership team members is addressed on both individual and team levels right from the start. Increasing trust builds teams that can collaborate and innovate more successfully. A Rapid Alignment Team Effectiveness assessment identifies specific team areas that need to be addressed to become the high-performing collaborative team required to succeed in today’s complex and turbulent environment.

Core Principles for Transforming Your LEADERSHIP

1

RA STRATEGIC LEADERSHIP COACHING

Sustainable organization innovation and change only happens when individual leaders transform their own perspectives and mental models. Our unique Rapid Alignment Strategic Leadership Coaching approach aligns personal leadership insights with leadership strategic priorities so that individual performance is optimized for achieving organization objectives. Enhancing strategic self-awareness of all senior leaders is an immediate and ongoing pivotal Rapid Alignment priority.

2

LEADERSHIP MOTIVATION

The Rapid Alignment assessment of a leader’s personality traits provides insight into their leadership motivation and what drives their leadership behaviours in their current situational context. Understanding each leader’s motivational dynamic allows senior leaders to best develop an organization value proposition that supports and rewards each leader’s optimal results performance.

3

LEADERSHIP BRAND

Through our Strategic Leadership Coaching process, we help develop and enhance each leader’s ‘individual leader brand’ based on increased effectiveness of individual leadership behaviours. This ongoing process builds their leadership capabilities in real time and enhances their leadership reputation as the leader they aspire to be.
