Alignment Mapping
Purposedifferent
When effort only needs to be classified roughly, it makes comparability more important than false precision. It helps sort work quickly into manageable sizes.Helps clarify scope, sequence, and delivery flow in concrete terms. It makes work, boundaries, and order steerable. The result is captured as a RAID Log and a source for status reporting.When several people work toward one goal but hold different mental maps, Alignment Mapping makes the discrepancies visible. It arranges goals, assumptions, and priorities so shared direction becomes verifiable.
