Diagnostic Assessment

Measure Alignment

Measuring alignment means understanding whether people are working toward the same priorities, with the same expectations, and the same understanding of success.

What We Measure

We assess clarity across five critical areas where misalignment typically emerges.

Priorities

Are teams working toward the same goals, or are they executing different versions of 'what matters most'?

Roles

Do employees understand their responsibilities, or have roles drifted without acknowledgment?

Decision Authority

Is it clear who makes decisions, or are approvals creating bottlenecks and confusion?

Processes

Are workflows enabling performance, or creating friction that employees are blamed for?

Leadership Signals

Do leaders' words, rewards, and actions align, or are employees trusting patterns over direction?

How We Measure

TrueNorth measures alignment by collecting structured, role-specific input from employees and comparing it directly to leadership intent.

1

Role-Specific Input Collection

We gather structured feedback from employees at all levels, tailored to their specific roles and responsibilities.

2

Leadership Intent Mapping

We capture what leadership believes is communicated, expected, and prioritized across the organization.

3

Gap Analysis

We compare employee understanding against leadership intent to identify where clarity breaks down and execution drifts.

4

Actionable Insights

We deliver clear findings that show exactly where misalignment exists and what's driving it—no guesswork.

Why Alignment Matters

When alignment breaks down, organizations experience invisible performance drag. Teams work hard but deliver inconsistent results. Employees disengage not because they lack motivation, but because they lack clarity.

Traditional engagement surveys ask the wrong questions and produce surface-level insights. By the time misalignment shows up in turnover or missed targets, it's already too late.

TrueNorth's diagnostic reveals exactly where understanding breaks down and execution drifts—so leaders can fix the right problems, not just the visible ones.
