Some people think of organizational alignment as "getting people to buy in" with an idea that is already formed. This may be useful sometimes but I don't think it's optimal.
Alignment is the process of synthesizing varied opinions and viewpoints on a subject.
Getting alignment on "why we're doing this is not about getting everyone to see "the right answer" so much as incorporating everyone's viewpoint into a "shared vision" of what that means.
Cultural alignment can mean "same thing" as in, "we are all driving toward the same goals" (true north) or it can mean "same way" as in, "we do things consistently."
A flock of geese does both -- can a modern organization work in the same way without stifling creativity?
STING sequences through vertebrate evolution.A.Multiple alignment of STING sequences from zebrafish and other vertebrates. Identical positions are boxed in black, conservative positions in grey and block of similar residues in light grey. The residues of the 5 putative transmembrane (TM) regions and the putative RXR ER retention motifs found in zebrafish STING sequence are boxed. Zebrafish (HE856619, this study), Danio rerio; human (NP_938023), Homo sapiens; mouse (NP_082537), Mus musculus; chicken (E1C7U0), Gallus gallus; xenopus (NP_001106445), Xenopus tropicalis. B.NJ phylogenetic tree of vertebrate STING. The tree was based on multiple alignments of full-length and partial STING amino-acid sequences from fish and other vertebrates. The tree is drawn to scale. Full-length sequence accession numbers are the following: EPC (HE856620, this study), Pimephales promelas; goldfish (JF970229), Carassius auratus, the others are listed above and partial STING amino-acid sequences were deduced from the following EST sequences: salmon (GE786872), Salmo salar; weather loach (BJ827384), Misgurnus anguillicandatus. C.Conserved synteny around the TMEM173 gene in zebrafish, mouse and human. The location of the different markers and the chromosomes involved are indicated for the different species.
These images are from two very similar projects that I've just helped my friends with. They want to be able to hold bike frames on their alignment tables by the head tube. They both purchased used bench centers, and we had to make bull nose centers for them.
The fit up needed to be very close, so we were working to within a few tenths.
The other complication was that one of the centers on each set was spring loaded and utilized a rack and pinion to withdraw it... so we had to mill those rack gears.

Park Tool makes some great product. However this base must have been made on a Friday. Rogue bolt hole...
U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. Rebecca Walsh marks a stake during a survey alignment on an unfinished runway at Camp Dwyer, Afghanistan, June 25, 2010. The runway will be used to accommodate heavier aircraft at Camp Dwyer. Sergeant Walsh is an engineer deployed 809th Expeditionary Red Horse Squadron. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt.

Started off by prepping the paper with gesso just to give it a bit more tooth (the paper I'm using is a bit cheap).
Wrote words with a 3B pencil all over. Started with the big red shapes, then added some green.
Decided (probably too consciously) to do a figure. Added more green around her head.
Got stuck quite a few times, then hit on lilac coloured hair. Got stuck again, decided to make her body white.
Struggled to know what to do, so eventually just stopped.
I found this a lot harder than abstract as I just didn't know where to go with it.
Still enjoyed it though!

Alignment of amino acid sequences and phylogenetic analysis of the IbDFR protein with other species.(A) Multiple alignment of deduced amino acid sequences of dihydroflavonol-4-reductase (DFR) from sweet potato, Arabidopsis and Ipomoea purpurea. The black and other shaded boxes show identical and similar amino acids, respectively. The underline indicates the putative NADP binding site. (B) A phylogenetic tree of known plant DFR for anthocyanin biosynthesis. The GenBank accession numbers are: Arabidopsis thaliana (AtDFR, BAD95233), Fragaria ananassa (FaDFR, AAC25960), Malus domestica (MdDFR, AAD26204), Vitis vinifera (VvDFR, XP_002281858), Dianthus caryophyllus (DcDFR, CAA91924), Gerbera hybrid (GhDFR, CAA78930), Gentiana triflora (GtDFR, BAA12736), Ipomoea purpurea (IpDFR, BAA74700), Nicotiana tabacum (NtDFR, ABN80437), Solanum lycopersicum (SlDFR, CAA79154), Vaccinium macrocarpon (VmDFR, AAL89714), Hordeum vulgare (HvDFR, AAB20555), Bromheadia finlaysoniana (BfDFR, AAB62873), Ginkgo biloba (GbDFR, AAU95082), Antirrhinum majus (AmDFR, P14721), Medicago truncatula (MtDFR1, AAR27014), Populus tremuloides (PtDFR, AY147903), Solanum tuberosum (StDFR, AEN83503). The horizontal scale shows the number of differences per 100 residues derived from Clustal W alignment.
You just start without knowing what's going to happen. I had fun this time blending colours on the surface. blogged

The podium and tower interiors employ glass and aluminium panels in naturally producing a sense of vertical alignment to reflect architecture's narrow straightness.
