In fact, a lack of company alignment might be the roadblock you’ve been overlooking to successfully communicate your value to your target audience.

Company leaders play a critical role in driving alignment throughout all business facets. They are responsible for cultivating the culture of the organization, charting the path, and facilitating a unified approach to company goals.
