When you must align teams you don't actually manage

I'm trying to get product, design, and two other engineering teams pointed the same way, and I don't run any of them. Some weeks it clicks; other weeks everyone's off doing their own thing and I can't pull them back. Getting people I don't manage to actually follow me is the part I keep wrestling with.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You have to line up teams you don't manage, and it only half works.

If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
