"Leadership Team Alignment provides evidence-based strategy and solutions from two authors who bring a wealth of practical experience buttressed by an in-depth knowledge of the most recent leadership team research. This work is based on over eight hundred hours of direct observation of over fifty leadership teams on different continents, and thousands more hours working with their executives assessing team challenges and implementing solutions to address them. Global companies examined in depth span the financial services, gaming, health, media, construction, transport, hospitality, aerospace, and chemicals industries. The result is a targeted strategy for building and managing a top executive team to gain competitive advantage. The book debunks much of the received wisdom regarding the sources of leadership team dysfunctionality and explains why commonly adopted remedies end up doing more harm than good. Distinct and empirically driven, this work is the needed action plan for creating alignment from the leadership team and across organizations to maximize performance"--
