Are you and the people around you on the same page?

Alignment drives success — but are you measuring it?

Success hinges on a shared foundation — common goals, trust, and clarity — that leaders instinctively grasp yet rarely have the opportunity to measure. 

In a world awash with transactional data, these intangibles slip through the cracks, breeding waste and risk.

Quantify them, and you empower decisive, impactful action for resilient outcomes, ignore them and you risk:

  • Waste, inefficiency and compromised outcomes – even relationship breakdown
  • Competing definitions of success and value, leading to conflicting priorities, confusion, friction and disagreements
  • Slower and less effective decision-making, reflected in a loss of agility and missed opportunities
  • Lack of understanding and empathy, causing suspicion and mistrust
  • Rifts between leadership and the front line, due to unclear or unworkable strategic direction

Yet misalignment often goes unrecognized as the root cause of serious problems — until it’s too late to act.

Quickly gauge your alignment

The Symptoms Alignment Diagnostic is a crucial step on the journey:

  • Invite your team – Include yourself and up to 6 others
  • Gather and capture perspectives – Engage people by evaluating some key things that matter
  • Get your custom report – Responses are anonymized and compiled into an accessible report
  • See your alignment (and misalignment) – Identify group agreement, divergence, and blind spots
  • Discover your Strengths & Weaknesses – Share best practice and get support where needed
  • Get guidance on using this insight – Improve collaboration and decision-making

This powerful, easy-to-use diagnostic isn’t a survey — it’s a clear, structured assessment to quickly pinpoint your alignment on the symptoms of what’s not working.

Frequently Asked Questions

We get it — there are many “silver bullets” out there.

This diagnostic isn’t a quick fix or a generic tool.

It’s a rigorous, collaborative process that uncovers hidden misalignments and overlooked value drivers that contracts and KPIs miss.

It helps your entire team see what’s really going on, so you can act with clarity and confidence:

  • It’s proven to scale — but feels deeply personal.
  • It builds insight before demanding action.
  • It fits how people naturally learn, decide, and engage.
  • It doesn’t impose or instruct — it invites and unlocks.
  • Most importantly: it works where other efforts haven’t.

This is not just another survey.

We understand people get “survey fatigue”, but aside from some superficial similarities, the purpose, nature and outcomes of this diagnostic are entirely different to a survey:

This is a structured diagnostic tool for synthesizing, comparing and highlighting differences in perspectives.

It will not only reveal misalignments you wouldn’t otherwise see, but it will clarify them through the specific detail of the Value Codes – focused areas you will be evaluating.

Alignment is a necessary foundation for success.

But it is very difficult to achieve and very difficult to know how far away you are from achieving it.

This diagnostic will give you an idea of where things really are, and establish a benchmark which you can return to later, to track change and evaluate the effectiveness of actions taken.

If everything is looking good, and if everyone agrees, then the diagnostic will start to substantiate this.

More likely, though, you’ll uncover areas of opportunity, where the diagnostic and report will:

  • Provide a constructive outlet to surface concerns regarding some key things that matter, and prepare to reorient around solutions
  • Encourage and support individuals that want to take a lead in understanding and making progress in developing alliancing capability
  • Clarify where to focus, which may include discussing and resolving different perspectives

True alignment doesn’t happen by accident.

Alignment happens when teams see their differences, discuss them openly, and take action together.

Absolutely.

Think of this as a powerful diagnostic lens that complements and enhances your current initiatives — helping to align efforts, prioritize actions, and avoid wasted time or conflicting approaches.

You’ll be asked to set a password to keep your responses secure (nothing will be shared with any third party).

After you’ve submitted your response, you can invite up to 6 other people to share their perspective.

Most participants complete it in under 30 minutes, and immediately after submitting their response, they each receive a personalized report that presents back and highlights aspects of what they have said. 

When all participants have submitted responses, a more detailed report is generated that synthesizes and analyzes all the data to identify:

  • Overall trends.
  • Specific areas that seem agreed to be of concern (and areas that seem to be going well).
  • Areas with a diverse spread of opinion, suggesting division or perception gaps to resolve.
  • Patterns amongst what has been surfaced.
  • Frequent terms used, which can be the beginnings of a shared language.
  • Recommended next steps.

Not at all.

While it’s especially valuable for high-value, high-importance relationships, any contract or partnership where outcomes matter can benefit. The approach scales to fit your needs.

Absolutely.

Your responses are 100% confidential, and results, not attributed to a named person, are only shared within your participating team.

Benchmarking is fully anonymized to protect your privacy at every stage.
