A Personal Lesson in Alignment
In one project I worked on, a lack of alignment between the client and the project team caused initial setbacks. The client envisioned a minimalist approach, while the team was creating a feature-rich solution.

The Takeaway
Being on the same page isn’t just a cliché—it’s the cornerstone of successful collaboration. Whether you’re managing a team, collaborating with clients, or working toward personal goals, alignment ensures clarity, trust, and achievement. Because when everyone is rowing in the same direction, the journey becomes smoother, and the destination more attainable.
