Strategic alignment is not a planning exercise. It is the operating condition that determines whether an organization’s resources, decisions and people are pulling in the same direction. When alignment is present, strategy moves from intent to execution. When it breaks down, even well-funded initiatives stall; talented teams work at cross-purposes and the gap between what leaders plan and what the organization delivers grows wider over time. This micro-course introduces the fundamentals of strategic alignment: what it is, why it fails, how to establish it across functions and levels and what it takes to maintain it as conditions change. Whether you are leading a team, managing a function or influencing organizational direction, understanding alignment is essential to making strategy work in practice.
