A model that explains:• People think like they do• People act like they do• People interact/communicate with others
2 Basic Principles:• The Contractual Method• Open Communication
Philosophy/Assumptions:• People are OK; thus each person has validity, importance, equality of respect• Everyone (with only few exceptions, such as the severely brain-damaged) has the capacity to think• People decide their story and destiny, and these decisions can be changed
Our Brain:• Determines how we think and act• Acts like a tape recorder while recording:
• Events• Associated Feelings

Agreement
Alignment is the process of synthesizing varied opinions and viewpoints on a subject.
A flock of geese does both -- can a modern organization work in the same way without stifling creativity?
Getting alignment on "why we're doing this is not about getting everyone to see "the right answer" so much as incorporating everyone's viewpoint into a "shared vision" of what that means.
Cultural alignment can mean "same thing" as in, "we are all driving toward the same goals" (true north) or it can mean "same way" as in, "we do things consistently."
