Overall Alliance Philosophy

A problem in many organisations is the need for pragmatism, to not make things more complex than they already are.

In this context we "Members of Allign" find that:

• We do not want to make things complex, but do want to start from the basis that complexity is a given today.
• A holistic approach is therefore a conditio sine qua non.
• A number of activities should not be separated, but should be differentiated. We think among other things of:
      » Running business (de shop) and project portfolio (the reconstruction).
      » Thet we need to be careful with making goal synonimous with result
         and making result synonimous to effect.
      » "Hard" (systems, work processes, etc.) and "soft" (culture,
          education, etc.).          
      »  That we need to be careful with making process synonimous to project.
• Thus overall, in most areas not or ... or, but rather and .... and.
• We should not (only) focus on the training (management development) of individuals, but rather on the professionalisation of the organisation.
• Key for success in every change management trajectory is: one language / one approach.

This is explained in detail in the Strategy Deplyment concept and in the thereof derived TOP professionalisation concept.
