Achieving Success through Congruence
The fact is that the strategic plans of most companies don’t work. A key reason is that little time, if any, is spent harmonizing the facts of the external environment, the financial targets that are set and the internal capabilities of the business so that these discrete activities work together.
The successful company practices congruence through out the organization from inspiration to implementation to evaluation. Leaders at all levels scan the external environment for trends and anomalies that inspire new ideas. They engage diverse participants in defining the new ideas, assessing the significance the ideas have for the company, describing the goals and benchmarks and determining the probabilities for success. Lining up vision, goals and objectives, internal processes, and expected behaviors through systematic and continuous analysis and evaluation creates a congruence of decision making and effort that translates to maximum return on the investment.
How congruent is your vision with current and projected business environments?
How congruent are the behaviors of your company and employees with your vision statement?
See article summary, Systems Analysis, for questions to ask yourself.

Ultimately human beings crave for joy, peace and harmony. All other things (including wealth, health, knowledge etc.,) fade in relevance and importance when it comes to measuring success.
Inner joy is a function of emotions and feelings. Emotion - Energy in motion – is dynamic, all the time shaping every facet of life – relationship, health, performance, ability to communicate effectively etc.
One who manages emotions, manages life triumphantly. And, one who masters emotions transcends mediocrity of survival and soars into lofty heights of accomplishment. Mastery of emotions places one in a position of command. She who masters emotions will, at will, bring forth excellence in her chosen areas of life.
Mastery of emotions engenders power and strength of body and mind, to meet the perpetually emerging challenges of life. He is the master of situations who masters emotions.
Mastery of emotions is not denial or rejection of the feelings attached to them. Mastery means acknowledging the reality of emotions and feelings and giving them the due place they deserve. When acknowledged in the appropriate manner, emotions serve significantly useful purpose. Mastery helps us to live our lives through awareness.
