SUMMARY:[Executive Forum] Q1 Fractures Equal Q4 Failures: Why Your Executive Team Alignment Can't Wait Until Mid-Year
DESCRIPTION:Join peer executives in our Next Big Thing Executive Forum for an honest conversation about what happens when your leadership team isn’t on the same page (or working in opposition to one another)\, and why waiting to fix it costs more than you think. \nWhen: Thusday\, March 19 @ 11:00 am ETWhere: Live via Zoom \nThe Reality: Only 27% of leaders believe their employees are aligned with organizational goals. When you ask employees\, just 9% agree. That gap — reported in Axios HQ’s 2025 State of Internal Communication Report — is a leadership alignment problem. And it starts at the top. \nMeanwhile\, Harvard Business Review published two separate articles in January 2026 on the persistence of strategic misalignment. One\, from an Oxford professor\, argued that most leaders overlook alignment entirely because they assume it’s already there. The other showed how strategies that look coherent in the boardroom routinely fail at the next level down. \nWhy It Matters: Research across 410 companies found that highly aligned organizations grow revenue 58% faster than their misaligned peers. Here’s the Q1 urgency: the fractures happening in your executive team right now (like unspoken disagreements\, competing priorities\, and decisions that keep getting relitigated) don’t stay contained. They cascade. By the time you notice the damage in Q3 or Q4 results\, you’ve already lost months of momentum\, good people\, and strategic advantage. \nBottom Line: The longer you wait\, the more expensive it gets. \nDuring this forum you’ll join peer Executives to discuss: \n\n\nWhy executive teams that “seem” aligned are often the most at risk — and the specific warning signs you’re probably overlooking right now \n\n\nWhat’s actually driving the gap between your leadership team’s perception of alignment and the reality showing up in your results \n\n\nPractical\, proven approaches to closing alignment gaps before Q1 fractures become Q4 failures \n\n\nThis forum is for you if decisions are constantly being revisited\, your team spends more time in meetings rehashing priorities than making progress\, or you sense that people publicly agree but privately pursue different agendas. It’s also for you if you know alignment is off but aren’t sure where to start — especially if you want to get it right in the next 60-90 days. \nThe Value Is Being in the Room \nThe Next Big Thing Executive Forum brings together small groups of C-Suite executives and senior leaders for off-the-record\, peer-to-peer\, idea-exchange conversations. We cover topics essential to defining\, designing\, and successfully realizing your “next big thing\,” whether it’s a new strategic initiative\, internal policy shift\, or significant organizational transformation. We charge no fee to participate and make no sales pitch at the event. To honor our “off-the-record” commitment\, we do not make recordings available.

SUMMARY:AI Activity isn’t AI Productivity: 3 difference-makers executives should implement now for results in 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join peer executives at our Next Big Thing Executive Forum for a candid conversation about AI deployments that deliver on promised results and those that not only fail on ROI but actually decrease morale and productivity. \nWhen: Thursday\, April 9 @ 11:00 am ETWhere: Live via Zoom \nThe Reality: BCG’s research found that 95% of organizations are busy\, spending money\, and not seeing results in AI adoption. (BCG\, The Widening AI Value Gap\, September 2025) \nWhy It Matters: Without the right foundation\, AI amplifies overwhelm. People feel busier\, not more productive\, and adoption stalls. Investing in the technology is the easy part. Closing the gap between AI activity and AI productivity is the leadership work most organizations haven’t done yet. \nBottom Line: Real results without the usual resistance happen when leaders build the conditions for them. \nDuring this forum\, you’ll join peer executives to discuss: \n\n\nWhy AI fluency (not AI tools) is the actual differentiator\, and what it means for how you lead\, model\, and set expectations at every level of your organization \n\n\nThe most common places AI implementations break down\, where overwhelm overtakes adoption\, and what change-capable leadership looks like in practice \n\n\nHow to build an organization that can keep adapting without burning out your people or losing their trust in the process \n\n\nThis forum is for you if your AI investments are generating more activity than results\, your people are overwhelmed\, or you’re not sure your leadership team has given the organization what it needs to actually succeed with AI\, not just deploy it. \nThe Value Is Being in the Room \nThe Next Big Thing Executive Forum brings together small groups of C-Suite executives and senior leaders for off-the-record\, peer-to-peer\, idea-exchange conversations.
