Why You Need It
Mid-level managers are a critical link between strategy and execution. Yet organizations often underestimate the communication gap that exists across levels—and the impact it has on alignment and performance.
Our global research highlights a sharp decline in perceived clarity, with only a small fraction of employees feeling their organization is truly “on the same page”:
- 33% of leaders
- 19% of managers
- 10% of individual contributors
Mid-level managers sit at the center of this challenge, tasked with translating leadership’s vision into actionable steps for their teams. This white paper explores why strengthening communication at this level is essential for driving alignment, engagement, and organizational success.
