FAQs – Your Questions Answered

What is Strategic Alignment?

Strategic alignment is the correlation between your strategy as the business owner and the everyday activity of your employees.

Strategically aligned businesses have a strategy that is linked to what their employees are doing every day.

How does the Strategic Action Model™ work?

The Strategic Action Model™ divides business strategies into four quadrants based on the level of strategy and action. The vertical axis represents strategy, from low to high, and the horizontal axis represents action, from low to high.

  • Start-Up (High Strategy, Low Action): This phase represents businesses that have strong strategic planning but are in the early stages of implementing actions.
  • Action (High Strategy, High Action): Businesses here are effectively combining strategy with strong execution.
  • Exit (Low Strategy, Low Action): This is where businesses may struggle with both planning and action, often indicating stagnation or a need for reinvention.
  • Low Strategy, High Action: Businesses in this stage may be active but lack a strong strategy to guide their actions, leading to inefficient or misguided efforts.

The model helps identify where a business is and suggests areas for improvement, focusing on increasing both strategic clarity and actionable steps.

Why is Strategic Alignment important?

Your business currently generates its revenue from your employees, regardless of what industry you are in. How strategically aligned your employees are directly impact your top-line revenue numbers and your bottom-line growth.
