Wonderful read. Thanks.

Few thoughts, In my opinion, leaders communicate the mission, vision and values, but never clearly communicate the strategy. The strategy for each department and team and it’s sub-teams with-in an org will be different. This has to be communicated at all levels to have the entire workforce work towards the single mission.

Many Startups are successful due to this.

thanks. could agree more. communicating strategy is incredibly important and a gap that seems to happen often in companies. there's a big difference at the employee level between (a) a strategy that exists [somewhere at the executive/management level] and (b) a strategy that exists and is transparent, well-communicated and well-understood.

This is why I think a hierarchical, cascading V2MOM or OKR approach is a helpful communication vehicle to transfer strategy top-down and build consensus and participation in the strategy process bottom-up.
