SBC Dave NewellDave Newell is on a mission to “align the misaligned” — connecting leaders with systems that foster outstanding work and personal fulfillment. He collaborates with small business leaders to implement the Five Facets of Business™ — a small business operating system — to optimize processes and foster team alignment around culture, strategy, operations, story, and finances. This framework provides leaders with the necessary clarity and alignment to crush both short and long-term goals. As CEO of Evolve Leadership Consulting, Dave has coached hundreds of leaders both nationally and internationally and has implemented this framework. For more information: www.evolve-consulting.com

This week on SmallBizChat Podcast:

  • Effective business alignment involves ensuring all aspects of a business, including culture, strategy, operations, story (sales/marketing), and finances, are moving in the same direction to scale successfully and overcome common challenges.
  • Misalignment in a business can manifest through symptoms such as missed sales targets, internal communication breakdowns, and stagnant revenue, which often indicate systemic issues that require a comprehensive approach rather than isolated fixes.
  • The three stages of alignment—alignment, misalignment, and realignment—require leaders to actively engage with the difficult areas of their business, leverage tension to drive positive change, and maintain a dynamic approach to adapt to changing situations and environments.
