Why do some businesses thrive, while many more struggle and fail? A key reason – and the focus of this book – is strategic alignment.

This is the careful arrangement of the various elements of an enterprise – from its business strategy to its organisation – to best support the fulfillment of its long-term purpose. The best-aligned enterprises are the best performing.

Most executives recognise that their enterprises should be managed in this aligned way, but lack a robust system of thought to allow them to execute strategic alignment effectively and realise its full benefits. There are thousands of organisations globally that are operating below their potential simply because they are not aligned. This book aims to change that.

In Align, Jonathan Trevor provides a blueprint for how strategic alignment can be effectively developed, implemented and sustained. Drawing upon active research at the University of Oxford's Sai¨d Business School, Jonathan also provides practical case studies and evidence-based insights – culminating in a thoughtful and compelling message to help leaders everywhere to improve their alignment and enterprise performance.

“A unique blend of practical insights and academic research make this a definitive guide to enterprise alignment. Align is a core read for every business leader.” – Dominic Barton, Global Managing Partner Emeritus, McKinsey & Company,

“Jonathan Trevor has done the extraordinary: he's taken a core business concept that most of us think we know well, studied it carefully, and given us a new, deep, and practical approach to alignment. His work is particularly timely as leaders in this complicated time wrestle with defining their purpose and aligning it to their strategy and organizations.” – Professor Peter Tufano, Peter Moores Dean of the Saïd Business School, University of Oxford,

“As someone who is often resistant to accepting advice from business books for even my own strategies, it is no small feat that Jonathan Trevor's book has commanded my attention and that, more importantly, I have learned greatly from it.” – John Crabtree OBE, Lord Lieutenant of West Midlands and Chair of the 2022 Commonwealth Games Organising Committee,
