Having a powerful vision is one of the defining characteristics of leaders, especially when it comes to leading teams. While devoting time to creating understanding among team members about your vision is important, regularly checking in with and creating alignment is even more important. Regularly check in with the vision through asking the following:

What do you think we should start/stop doing on this team (project)?
What are the three best and three worst examples of us living our vision?
On a scale of 1-10 how are people doing, how is our stress level, how do we feel about the progress on the project, etc.?
What is one thing we need to do to better align our actions with our vision?
