6. LEARNING
• It is difficult to set learning agenda if you don't have clear written goals. I
will draw on a large database from the Metrus Group, which contains
questions related to alignment and performance management. The seven
drivers of high alignment include:
• 1. A clear, agreed - on vision and strategy
• 2. Translation of the vision and strategy into clear, understandable goals and
measures
• 3. Acceptance, or passion for, the vision, strategy, goals among those who
are implementing them
• 4. Clarity regarding individual roles and requirements in supporting the
strategic goals — and the extent to which these have been effectively
cascaded and interlinked across the organization
• 5. Sufficient capabilities (talent, information, and resources) to deliver the
behaviors needed to reach the goals
• 6. Clear, timely feedback on goal attainment and the drivers of those goals
• 7. Meaningful incentives to encourage employees to develop or deploy
sufficient capabilities to achieve the goals
