Using the required Written Assignment Template (see attached), answer the following questions:

Why is creating alignment an important leadership function? What are other methods of creating alignment? How can the use of measurements support their deployment?

NOTE: The paper should be a minimum of a three (3) pages in length (excluding the title page, reference page, and any appendices) and include at least three (3) peer-reviewed, scholarly references.

APA style (6th edition).

Please follow the below:

Cleggism #1: Unless otherwise indicated, always write in third-person, never in first-person.
Cleggism #2: Unless otherwise indicated, always write objectively, never subjectively (now, if the assignment calls for the your personal perspective/insight/belief, then it’s okay to write subjectively – even in first-person – but you still need to back up your perspective with objective research to support said perspective/insight/belief).
Cleggism #3: Always use peer-reviewed, scholarly sources (remember … Wikipedia is not a scholarly source of information).
Cleggism #4: Always give credit where credit is due (it doesn’t matter if you’re using information obtained from a published article in Healthcare Executive or something about cholesterol in a brochure from the American Heart Association, it needs to be credited accordingly).
Cleggism #5: Avoid the use of direct quotes; instead, synthesize what you’ve read and put it into your own words.
