Align & Mobilize the Workforce

Information and knowledge workers make decisions every day that impact productivity positively or negatively. . .

It's their Discretionary Privilege that every leader would like to control, but can't.

Leaders cannot force good decisions. New skills are needed to influence decisions that are aligned.

  • Focused Engagement: Avoid the costly assumption that everyone is aligned to results. . . Learn to be sure they are.

  • Demonstrate Accountability: 6 Behavioral Standards critical to getting accountability right - once and for all.

  • Invite Feedback: Flipping traditional feedback on its head.

  • Managing Opinions: Managing behavior is old school.


The TEAMALIGN solution is simple.

It's a transformational approach with one end in mind - to align discretionary decision making to achieve the team or organization's most critical results. The solution is simple with 3 Interdependent Skillsets:

  1. Learn to assess levels of Focused Engagement - not just engagement - but the kind of buy-in that sparks employee’s discretionary decision making and effort. Learn to beware of Counterfeit Engagement.

  2. After all the books and workshops about Accountability, many struggle to get it right - especially with managing employee’s discretionary decision making and efforts.

    • The data is compelling: 84% of the workforce describes itself as “trying but failing”, or “avoiding” accountability, and 80% of people see accountability as punishing.

    • We untangle this! . . . It’s not about externalizing - how to “hold others accountable” - it'‘s about fostering the conditions for employees to take accountability.

  3. Break from traditional feedback methods that are not psychologically safe - that triggers a fight or flight reaction - nearly every time! Optimum employee performance can only happen by creating a culture of Inviting Feedback - turning traditional feedback methods on it’s head!


Unprecedented change is the norm.

Each employee's "Discretionary Privilege" belongs to them. It is something that leaders cannot control - no matter how hard they try.

Employee Discretionary Privilege can be influenced by applying the 3 Interdependent Skillsets. These are the secret to optimal human performance.

How today's Information and Knowledge Workers make decisions is vital to productivity.


Newsflash! People nodding their heads in meetings can be a counterfeit of true buy-in and alignment.
