301. The Why Whisperer: Aligning Teams with Hans Lagerweij
Q: What do you think is going wrong that we end up with the stat that is so alarming, 95 percent of people don't even know the strategy?
Hans attributes it to a historical divide between top management and staff, where strategy is seen as something for management while daily work is handled by employees, also citing a lack of resources focused on practical implementations of strategy.
