Description

In this episode of The Business of Alignment, Anthony “AJ” Vaughan, founder of The E1B2 Collective, unpacks one of the most overlooked truths inside enterprise organizations: the widening gap between strategic ambition and workforce capability. Drawing from real-world research and executive behavior theory, AJ explores why many CEOs and CHROs privately admit they’re unsure their teams possess the skills needed to deliver on the company’s next big growth vision.

He challenges Learning & Development leaders to evolve beyond programs and slide decks toward true behavioral change — equipping sales and operational leaders to coach, adapt, and scale alignment in real time. Through candid examples, AJ outlines how modern L&D functions can become the central nervous system of organizational readiness, embedding learning at the managerial level and transforming capability gaps into competitive advantage.

A must-listen for executives, HR innovators, and leadership coaches who understand that growth isn’t just about headcount or budget, it’s about the alignment between human behavior and business intent.
