Working hard without a direction creates a lot of momentum but very little progress. But with alignment, you can make this progress exponential by simply connecting the dots in people’s heads.
Layla, good post! I've been reflecting recently on how powerful the concept of a "shared consciousness" within product teams can be in terms of driving impact. Building coherence (alignment) is a big part of that. The analogy of the best sports teams is a useful one - they compete hard, but play with harmony.

Nailed it!

Thanks! Great insights
