Every leader can talk about vision. Fewer can align priorities. But the true test of leadership? Whether daily actions across the organization reflect that vision.

You can tell when leadership alignment is broken by the way decisions are made. Even when leaders know the company goals, their choices don’t always reflect them — and the cost is bigger than most realize.

Too often, leaders interpret strategy through the lens of their own function. Sales prioritizes growth, operations focuses on efficiency, finance stresses cost control, and HR champions people-first initiatives. Individually, these are all valid. Collectively, if not aligned, they create a tug-of-war that slows progress to a crawl.

Leaders are often praised for vision, strategy, or charisma. But there’s one factor that quietly determines whether those strengths translate into real results: alignment. When leaders are aligned, organizations move with clarity, speed, and confidence. When they’re not, execution slows, silos form, and even the most brilliant strategies fizzle out.
