We continue our seven-part mini-series on Creating Alignment with Your People by exploring the second dimension of alignment — Capacity Alignment.

In this episode of Building a Clear Authentic Brand, I explain how to recognize whether someone has the ability, potential, and bandwidth to truly thrive in their role — not just perform it. You’ll learn why competence isn’t the same as capacity, how to spot the difference between good and great, and how to align people with roles that bring out their best work.

Because when people have the capacity to thrive, everyone wins.
