Per the Harvard Business Review- "Since it is impossible for leaders to explain the full context in which they made their strategy choices, they have to find different ways to help their employees understand and appreciate their choices. Involving employees in the development of strategy, linking the choices made to the organization’s purpose, and communicating not only the choices made but the alternatives considered and rejected can be effective ways to bring employees on board quickly and make the strategy choices more memorable." #strategy #communication #leadership
