7 essentials you need to know about promises:
  • People expect promises to be kept.
  • Coworkers are motivated when they are enabled to fulfill promises.
  • Promises are dynamic and sometimes disruptive, 
  • Promises must be authentic and actionable over time.
  • Alignment requires input from coworkers.
  • Bottom-up strategizing and coworker input elevate promise alignment.
  • Agile and dynamic promise alignment closes the promise-performance gap.

Why is alignment with customer and stakeholder promises essential for productivity? Experiences of promise fulfillment form the foundation of perceived satisfaction, encompassing every interaction a person has with an organization and its brand. Satisfaction is the foundation of customer- and coworker loyalty.

To consistently fulfill given promises at every touchpoint throughout the entire customer journey, an organization must continuously align with all the promises it makes. The organization must also align with its employer promises. This involves regularly assessing its state of promise readiness and making corrective actions when necessary. Alignment requires input from coworkers and circular strategizing. An internal promise mindset that supports agile, long-term alignment is essential for maintaining steady readiness to uphold promised value.
