Hey there,

The second half of the year is your chance to close strong—and it starts with getting Q3 right.

To make the most of it, take time now to assess where your focus needs to be. Don’t wait until the quarter flips and everything feels urgent.

Here are three ways to prepare with intention:

🔢 Start with the Data
Which numbers are off track? If they don’t improve next quarter, you risk falling short on annual or long-term goals.

🧠 Ask Your Team
Use a quick survey to get input. Remind everyone of your annual priorities, then ask: “Where should we focus next to move the needle?”

📊 Take the Alignment Assessment
In the Surveys tab of Align, the Alignment Assessment pinpoints which habits need the most work—based on your team’s own feedback.

Pro tip: Do this at both the company and team levels. It’s not just a leadership exercise—clarity at every level leads to faster execution.
